Table - best surf conditions forecast for Tuckers over the next 16 days.
Right, I’ll be honest with you – this is a tough one. The outlook for the next 16 days around Tuckers is a real mixed bag, and honestly, for long stretches it’s pretty grim. We’ve got a long wait ahead before anything even remotely rideable shows up.
The first real flash of hope, and I mean the only one worth getting excited about, arrives on the morning of Tuesday, the 14th of July. The wind will be light and offshore out of the NNW, a glassy start that’ll turn the place into a mirror. We’ll see a small pulse of swell, around 4ft, coming from the northeast. The period is a short 7 seconds, so it’s windswell, not groundswell, but it’s our best shot. The combined energy is moderate (205), so there’s some push in it. Tuckers is a point break, and it’s exposed to the swell, so it should wrap in with some shape. This is a standout for the whole period, but it’s a Tuesday morning, and the crowds can show up sometimes. Water temperature is sitting at about 81°F, which is around normal for this time of year.
After that, the swell drops off, and the wind turns ugly. Tuesday afternoon gets a little cross-off, but the energy is already fading. From Wednesday the 15th through to the 26th, it’s a whole lot of nothing. The wind is mostly cross or onshore, and the swell is tiny, rarely pushing over 2ft, with poor surf conditions. We get a few days with a bit of energy around the 18th and 20th of July, but the wind is a fresh breeze onshore, making it lumpy and messy. The swell direction shifts around, but the quality is just not there for a paddle. Honestly, for a point break, this setup would be more interesting for kite surfing than a surfboard.
So, to sum it up: we have one clear window on the morning of the 14th of July. If you’re keen, that’s your session. The rest of the 16 days, you’re looking at a long, blank run. It’s a bit of a bummer, but that’s how it goes sometimes.

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.
