The Lowdown
Alright folks, it’s Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – this is a tough run for Tuckers. We’re looking at a 16-day stretch with almost nothing to get excited about, and a long, painful gap right at the start. There’s a whole lot of nothing for the first two weeks, so don’t bother checking the buoys or the charts. The wind is either onshore, cross-onshore, or just plain messy, and the swell is weak and short-period. The water’s sitting at 82° right now, which is about normal for this time of year, so at least you won’t freeze while you’re staring at the flatness.
The first real chance to even get wet doesn’t come until Thursday, the 6th of August. The morning is the only window worth mentioning. We get a tiny bit of relief with a 4ft swell from the ESE, with a period of 7 seconds, and the combined energy is a weak 167. The wind goes glassy, which is a major positive – it’ll be clean. But the swell is small and short, so it’s really just a dribbler. The word on the file is “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions,” and that’s the truth. It’s a 1 out of 10 at best. It’s a point break, and it’s fairly consistent, but with this size, it’s a beginner-friendly ankle-snapper. Crowds are possible here, but with waves this weak, it’ll be a lonely session.
That’s it. That’s the only real window. The rest of the 16 days is a write-off. The wind is howling strong from the SW and SSW, turning the ocean into a choppy, lumpy mess. Swell barely reaches 3ft after that, and the energy drops into the 30s and 40s. It’s a long, blank run. The forecast can change, but for now, I’d leave the board in the car and go for a walk.
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.
