The Lowdown
Righto folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what Tuckers has got lined up for us over the next couple of weeks. I’ll be straight with you – this isn’t going to be a classic run, with only small, ordinary windows of opportunity.
The water temperature here is about average for this time of year, so no nasty surprises when you get in.
The outlook starts quietly. There’s no real surf on offer right now. Monday the 7th and Tuesday the 8th are a write-off with messy, poor conditions and tiny waves. Wednesday the 9th sees a slight bump to 4ft but with a short period of 5 seconds and fresh cross-shore wind, it’s a messy, choppy affair for the afternoon. That session is really more for kite surfers than paddle surfers.
We finally get a small break from the bleakness on Friday morning, the 11th. It’s not huge, just 2ft from the SE with a 10-second period and light offshore wind from the NW. The combined swell energy is moderate (117). It’s clean, but with waves that small and an exposed point break, it’ll only be for the longboard or a fun log. Friday afternoon offers a little more energy at 4ft from the SW (168 combined energy) but with a very short 6-second period, so it’s not going to be well-shaped.
The middle of the week from Saturday the 12th through to Friday the 18th offers very little. There’s a glassy morning on Monday the 14th but with only 2ft of swell, it’s hard to get excited. The afternoon of Thursday the 17th and Friday the 18th bring clean conditions with light winds and small 3ft to 3ft ESE swell, but nothing that’s a standout.
The best on offer in this whole 16-day window looks to be Saturday the 19th. We get a moderate offshore wind from the NNW, clean conditions, and while the swell is only 2ft, it’s coming from the SE with a nice long 11-second period. The combined energy is moderate (114). That longer period groundswell will wrap into Tuckers better than the short-period junk we’ve seen. It’s not big, but for a small and consistent point, this is as good as it gets. Keep in mind it’s over a week away, so treat it as promising but not locked in.
Further out, Monday the 21st sees a bit more push with 3ft from the NNE (141 combined energy) and clean conditions, but the period is a short 8 seconds, so it might be a bit gutless.
In short, we’ve got a long dry spell up until the 11th, then a few clean but small windows, with Saturday the 19th being the pick of the bunch.
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.
