Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get straight into it. We’ve got a 16-day look at Tuckers, and I gotta be honest with you – for the first week and a half, it’s pretty grim. The good news is, there’s a bit of a pulse trying to show up in the second week, but we’ve got a long stretch of frustrating flatness to get through first.

The opening days are a rough watch. From Friday the 10th right through to the middle of the following week, it’s all small, weak swell with barely any energy in the water. The combined energy is sitting weak, between 38 and 59 (weak). The swell is a mix of tiny 1ft to 2ft SE windswell with a period of just 9 seconds. The wind is mostly a fresh cross-off or cross-shore, which would normally be alright, but with nothing to work with, it’s just a flat, clean lake. Not a single wave worth paddling for. We’re looking at a solid 4-day gap of no surf worth mentioning here.

Then Tuesday the 14th brings a change – but not a good one. We get a jump in swell height to 6ft from the NNE, but it’s short period, at 7 seconds, and the combined energy jumps to 322 (moderate). The problem is the wind is a fresh cross-off from the NE, and the wave comment says it all: “poor surf conditions.” That size with that period and messy wind just means lumpy, closed-out chaos. It’s more of a kite-surfing setup than a paddle session. That continues into Wednesday morning, still cross-off and ordinary.

The only real window of hope appears on Thursday the 16th. The morning brings a light offshore from the N, with a 3ft swell from the ENE. The energy is still weak (79), but the wind is gentle offshore, making for clean, glassy conditions. The surf is “surfable but very ordinary.” It’s tiny, but it’s the best we’ll see for a long time. If you’re desperate, that’s your window. After that, it’s back to tiny, weak, and mostly onshore or cross-shore slop for the rest of the run.

The last few days, from the 24th into the 25th, we see a slow increase in swell again, up to 4ft from the ESE, with energy climbing to 171 (moderate). But the wind is directly onshore, and the period is still short. It’ll be bumpy and messy. No standout quality here.

So, the honest truth: there’s no real standout session in this whole forecast. The closest we get is the early morning of Thursday the 16th at Tuckers, with that tiny, clean, offshore bump. For a beginner, it’s almost flat; for anyone else, it’s a board-short session. The rest is a write-off until the very end, and even then, it’s not clean. If you’re a local, leave the boards in the car and wait for a better window.

Rusty.

Information about the Tuckers Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for Tuckers provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Tuckers can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Tuckers 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 (Tuckers) 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 Tuckers 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.
