The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty comin' at you from the beach. Let's have a look at what's on the table for the next couple of weeks.
Alright, I gotta be straight with you—this is a rough stretch for Tuckers. We’re lookin’ at a long, painful gap with no real surf to speak of. The first recommendation doesn't come through until the morning of Monday the 7th of September, and even then, it’s a tease. The whole first week is a write-off. We’ve got tiny swell, messy wind, and a lot of "poor surf conditions" stamped on every slot. The water is sitting at 85°F which is much warmer than normal for this time of year, so you’ll be sweating in your wettie if you even bother.
The first faint heartbeat you’ll feel is Monday morning, the 7th. Tuckers is a point break, pretty consistent, and it takes an ESE swell. The morning of the 7th offers up a weak 2ft from the SE with a period of 10 seconds. The combined energy is pitiful (80), and while the wind is a light cross-offshore from the NE, it’s still just "surfable waves but very ordinary conditions." Honestly, you’d be better off staying in bed.
The rest of the forecast is a dead zone. The surf stays tiny, under 3ft, with a period mostly sitting at 8 or 9 seconds. The wind is a mess, switching between strong cross-shore and even onshore slop. There’s a moment on the afternoon of Saturday the 12th of September where the wind goes light offshore from the NW and the swell bumps up to 2ft from the SE at 10 seconds, with 88 energy. It’s labeled "surfable waves but very ordinary conditions." That’s about as good as it gets. Later in the second week, on Wednesday the 16th of September, the period jumps to 12 seconds, but the swell is a pathetic 1ft—just a long-period ripple.
Bottom line: there’s no standout session here. The best you can hope for is a small, clean wave on the 12th afternoon, but it’s not going to get the heart pumping. For this stretch, the ocean’s got nothing to offer.

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.
