The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here with a look at what's shaping up for our local spot, Toes Over.
Look, I’m not gonna sugarcoat it. The next couple of weeks are a bit of a struggle. We’ve got swell, but finding a window where the conditions line up is like trying to find a parking spot at a packed beach. The water is running much warmer than normal for this time of year, sittin’ at a toasty 71°F, which is a real treat if you’re paddling out without a spring suit.
The first real glimmer of hope comes on Thursday, August 27th, in the afternoon. The wind is set to go glassy – dead calm – which is a major positive for clean surf. We’re looking at a clean 2ft of swell from the S, with a period of 11 seconds. The combined energy is moderate at 203. It’s not going to be pumping, but if you want a glassy, longboard-style session, that’s your chance.
Friday the 28th through the weekend is mostly a write-off with onshore winds messing things up, though the combined energy climbs up into the 400s (445 on Saturday morning), hinting at some push out there, but the wind just ruins it.
We get another shot at something decent on Wednesday, September 2nd, in the morning. Once again, it’s glassy. The swell is 2ft from the SSW with a 12-second period, and the combined energy is a solid 313. That’s a moderate energy reading, and with those glassy conditions, it’ll be worth a look for a mellow session.
After that, it’s a long stretch of onshore slop. The swells keep coming, some with decent period, but the wind is almost always onshore or cross-onshore. The energy hits a strong 453 on September 3rd afternoon, but it’s paired with onshore wind, so you’d be better off with a kite than a surfboard.
So, to wrap it up: It’s not a classic run. The standout sessions are the two glassy windows – the afternoon of August 27th and the morning of September 2nd. Both offer clean, rideable waves in the knee-to-waist high range. The rest of the period is a waiting game. Hang in there.
Rusty.

Information about the Toes Over Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Toes Over provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Toes Over can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Toes Over surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period.

Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Toes Over may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
