The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for the Tuckers area over the next 16 days. I’ll be straight with you, it’s a bit of a rough stretch.
Right off the bat, we’ve got a long dry spell. The first real chance of anything surfable doesn’t pop up until late in the outlook. From Friday July 24th right through to Friday August 7th, it’s a tough run of poor surf conditions. The wind is almost always messy, mostly cross-onshore, and the swell is either small, short-period, or blown out. That’s over two weeks of pretty much nothing to get excited about for a paddle surfer.
Finally, on Saturday August 8th, we get a little glimmer. The morning sees a tiny 0.4m swell from the NE with a very long period of 12 seconds, and the wind is offshore from the N. That’s a clean, glassy morning, but the wave energy is weak (65). The afternoon is even better, with a glassy 0.5m NE swell, a period of 11 seconds, and the combined energy is still weak (82). The report says "surfable waves but very ordinary conditions", which is about right for these tiny numbers.
That’s the only standout, and it’s a small one. For a point break like Tuckers, which is exposed to an ESE optimum swell, that NE swell is a bit of an odd angle, so the waves might not be lining up perfectly. But with glassy conditions and a long period, it’ll be clean and there might be a little fun ripple to be had. Crowds are possible at Tuckers, but with such tiny surf, it’ll likely be quiet.
The rest of the 16 days is a write-off for surfing. The setup is more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing, especially when the wind is blowing strong.
Rusty out.

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.
