The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ at Toes Over. This is a personal spot, and I gotta be straight with you – the next couple of weeks are a bit of a mixed bag. We’ve got a long wait for the good stuff, but when it arrives, it’ll be well worth the patience.
The first week is a tough one to watch. From the 31st of August through to the 5th of September, we’re dealing with onshore slop and tiny, weak swell. The combined energy barely gets into the moderate range, with readings like 255, 247, and 127 (moderate wave energy). The wind is either cross-on or straight on from the south or southwest, and the wave comment is consistently "poor surf conditions". It’s a total write-off. You’re better off waxing the longboard just to look at it.
Then, on Sunday the 6th of September, things flip. The morning shows a clean 4ft swell from the S, with a period of 15 seconds – that’s proper groundswell. The wind is light offshore from the NE, and the wave comment says "expect very good surf conditions". The combined energy jumps to 739 (strong wave energy). This is the standout. The afternoon holds up too, with a 4ft S swell and 15 seconds, but the wind picks up to 15 mph from the ENE. It’s still offshore, but it’s a bit stronger. The water temp is about average for the time of year, so no surprises there.
Monday the 7th gets messy. The swell is still there at 4ft to 5ft from the S, but a strong SE wind at 28 mph blows it out with thick cross-chop. That’s a day to sit out. After that, from the 8th of September onward, the swell drops fast and the wind turns onshore again. We’re back to 1ft to 2ft from the SW with onshore wind and low energy readings (244, 267, 263, etc.). The 16th is a week away and looks flat with a tiny 1ft SW swell and weak energy (147). Not worth getting wet for.
So, the call is clear: Sunday the 6th of September is your window. The morning session at Toes Over with that clean 4ft S groundswell and light offshore NE breeze is the best on offer. The period is 15 seconds, so the sets will be a bit more spread out, but the shape should be good for a beach/jetty setup. The swell is under 5ft, so it’s fine for most surfers, but it’s still an advanced spot, so keep your wits about you. It’s "fairly consistent" but can get crowded "sometimes", so get there early.
The rest of the period is a dry spell. No other standouts. Stick with the Sunday morning plan.
Rusty.

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.
