The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for the Tuckers corner over the next couple of weeks.

I’ll be straight with you – this outlook is a tough one. We’re looking at a long, dry spell before anything even thinks about getting rideable. The first record we’ve got is for Friday the 24th of July, but honestly, you wouldn’t want to be out there. The wind is howling onshore at 19 mph, the swell is a messy 6 ft from the ESE with a short period of 8 seconds, and the combined energy is weak (314). It’s a no-go.

The whole run from the 24th of July right through until the morning of Thursday the 7th of August is just poor. We’re talking days of onshore and cross-onshore winds, lumpy, choppy, messy conditions. The swell tries to come up a few times, like on Monday the 27th of July with 6 ft from the SSW but with a strong breeze of 25 mph ruining it. There’s a gap of nearly two weeks here where there’s nothing worth paddling out for. The water temperature is about average for this time of year, so no surprises there.

Now, here’s the tiny glimmer of hope. On the morning of Friday the 7th of August, we finally get a bit of a break. The wind goes glassy, with a light 3 mph from the SSW. The swell is tiny, only 2 ft from the NE, but it’s a groundswell with a period of 10 seconds and the combined energy is moderate (107). The description says "surfable waves but very ordinary conditions" – I’d call it a clean ankle-snapper. It’s better than nothing, but it’s not a standout.

The real standout, the only one worth getting excited about, is on the morning of Saturday the 8th of August. We’ve got some clouds about, but the wind turns light cross-offshore from the WNW at 6 mph. The swell picks up to 5 ft from the ESE with an 8-second period, and the combined energy jumps to a moderate 293. The file says to expect good surf conditions. This is the best on offer across the whole 16-day window. The swell is pushing 5 ft, so it’s right on that edge of being a bit much for beginners, but for the intermediate crew, this is the one to circle. The wind will keep it clean, and at Tuckers (a point) that longer period ESE groundswell should wrap in nicely. Because it’s over a week away, treat it as promising but not locked in just yet.

We don’t have any other standout breaks in the data, so that’s the story. A long wait for a little window on Saturday the 8th of August.

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.
