The Lowdown
All right, let's switch it up. This is Rusty again with the same outlook, but in feet and miles for you.
We're looking at Tuckers, a point break that’s usually pretty exposed to the south-east. It’s going to be a tough stretch ahead.
The water temp’s about average for this time of year.
Honestly, the next week and a half is a bit of a grind. We’ve got a real gap in quality. Most of the time it’s just small, weak energy, with the combined swell energy sitting around 48 to 139, which is pretty weak. Nothing over 5 feet at all. The wind is mostly cross or onshore for the first ten days, and the swell direction is coming from the SE or ESE.
Things don't really turn on until around the 23rd of September. That Wednesday morning, we see a pulse of swell from the NNE, a solid 5ft, with the combined energy jumping to 658, which is moderate to strong. The wind is offshore and clean, with a cross-off breeze and a period of 11 seconds. That’s the standout event. The following afternoon it’s still pushing 6ft from the NNE, energy at 600, with a clean cross-off breeze.
That Wednesday and Thursday will offer the best waves, but it’s a long-range call so it's promising but less certain. With the NNE swell and that longer period, it should shape up nicely for the point. Keep in mind, crowds are possible at Tuckers. After that, the energy starts to fade, but it stays in the moderate range through the 25th.
If you’re a beginner, maybe sit out that 6ft day—it might be a handful. For you experts, that’s the one.
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.
