The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into it.
Well, I gotta be straight with you – it’s a bit of a slow patch ahead for Toes Over. We’re looking at a long stretch of small, onshore-chop conditions that’ll keep the wave count low. The first real surf worth paddling out for doesn’t show up until Friday the 14th, and even then it’s marginal. From now until then, we’ve got a few days of flat, messy stuff you’d be better off watching from the beach.
The pattern is pretty consistent: tiny waves, mostly from the SW, with a persistent onshore wind. The combined swell energy is weak to moderate at best, topping out around 387 (moderate) on Saturday the 15th morning, but the wind is cross-onshore, so it’s all bumpy. The period is decent – 16 to 18 seconds – which is proper groundswell, but with such small heights (1ft to 3ft) and the wrong wind direction, it’s just not gonna line up.
The real standout, if you can call it that, is the morning of Friday the 14th. We’ve got a 1ft SSW swell with a 19-second period – that’s a long, clean line. The wind is light from the SSW, but it’s cross-onshore, so it’s not glassy. The combined energy is 248 (moderate). It’s still marginal, but it’s the best of a quiet bunch. If you’re itching, that’s your window.
After that, it’s more of the same: small, bumpy, and onshore through the weekend and into next week. The second week, from the 19th onward, is pretty lifeless. The water temp is about average for the time of year, nothing weird.
Honestly, this is a blank run for Toes Over. The consistency is “fairly consistent” here, but with this forecast, it’s just a bust. Keep an eye on the charts – it won’t stay this quiet forever.
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. If you surf the same spot (Toes Over) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. 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.
