Table - best surf conditions forecast for Tuckers over the next 16 days.
G’day, I’m Rusty. Right, let’s be straight with you – this outlook for Tuckers is a tough one. We’ve got a long stretch ahead with not a lot to get excited about, so I’ll take you through it chronologically.
The forecast kicks off on Tuesday the 7th of July, but honestly, it’s a write-off for the first week. From Tuesday afternoon right through until Monday the 13th of July, we’re lookin’ at tiny, weak swell – around 1ft to 2ft from the SE, with period sittin’ between 9 and 10 seconds. Combined wave energy is low, hoverin’ between 38 and 122, so there’s barely any grunt. Winds are mostly cross or cross-off and blowin’ at 12 to 25 mph, which is enough to mess with any chance of a clean wave. The water temp is 82°, which is a touch warmer than usual for this time of year. It’s poor surf all the way – not worth paddlin’ out.
Now, there’s a bit of a glimmer on Tuesday the 14th of July. We get a pulse of new swell in the morning – 4ft from the NNE, period 8 seconds, with combined energy jumpin’ to 245 (moderate). That’s the best we’ll see, no doubt. The wind will be light offshore from the NW at 9 mph, makin’ for clean conditions, and it’s a glassy start. However, the swell direction is the opposite of what Tuckers likes (it prefers ESE), and the period is short, so waves will be a bit weak and crumbly. Still, if you’re desperate, Tuesday mornin’ is your window. The afternoon drops to 4ft, wind goes cross-off, and it’s only marginal.
Wednesday the 15th sees the swell fade to around 3ft from the NNE, with a 7-second period – that’s poor energy, only 156. Winds are cross-shore and messy, so not worth it.
From Thursday the 16th of July onward, it’s back to rubbish. Swell direction swings around to SSW and SW, but the period drops to 6 seconds and the wind cranks up – 19 to 25 mph cross or cross-on. On Friday the 17th, there’s a brief spike to 6ft from the SSW with 291 combined energy (moderate), but with a fresh 22 mph cross-wind, it’ll be lumpy and chopped out. That’s kite-surf conditions, not paddle-surf. The following days are all cross-onshore and messy, with swell slowly droppin’ back to 2ft by Monday the 20th.
To sum it up: the only real window is Tuesday morning, July 14th. That’s your standout. For the rest of the 16-day stretch, there’s just not enough quality to bother. Keep an eye on the charts, though – it could always shift.

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.
