The Lowdown
Hey, Rusty here. Let’s talk about Tuckers over the next 16 days. I gotta be straight with you – it’s a grim stretch. Tuckers is a fairly consistent point break, but right now the models are giving us almost nothing worth paddling out for. The whole period is littered with tiny, gutless swells and messy wind, so brace yourself for a long wait.
Right off the bat, Thursday 3rd through Sunday 6th, we’ve got wave heights barely scraping 2ft with period around 8 seconds – combined energy sitting under 100 (weak) most of the time. Winds are cross-off or glassy at times, but the swell is just too small to do anything with. Water temp is about 85°, which is nearly 4° warmer than usual for early September – that’s notably warm, but it won’t help the surf.
Then Tuesday 8th rolls in with a pulse: 6-7

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.
