The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again. Let's break down the coming weeks for Tuckers.
I gotta level with you, this is a rough one. The whole 16-day forecast is a write-off. Every single session is tagged as 'poor surf conditions', so there's no day I'd be telling you to grab your board. We're looking at a solid two-week stretch with nothing decent on offer.
The only break in the picture is Tuckers, a point break that's fairly consistent and open to the swell. The water temp is around 82°, which is about normal for the time of year, nothing to write home about.
The real killer here is the wind. From Wednesday, July 22nd, right through to the end of the month, we've got a constant barrage of moderate to strong cross-onshore and onshore winds from the SSE and SW. The swell bumps up to 6ft at best, but with short, weak periods of 6 to 10 seconds, and the combined wave energy is mostly weak, ranging from 26 to 283. The wind is just going to shred any chance of a clean wave. It's a point break, but with this wind, it's going to be a choppy, lumpy mess.
The second week, from August 1st to the 6th, is even worse. The swell drops right off to between 2ft and 4ft, with periods still short. The wind lightens up a little, turning more onshore, but the combined energy is still very weak, mostly under 100. There's just no energy in the water.
To be blunt, I'd leave the board in the car. The wind is all wrong for Tuckers. If you're absolutely desperate for a splash, the morning of August 2nd has a light offshore wind, but with a 2ft, 7-second swell and energy of just 49, you're just bobbin' around. This is just one of those blank runs for the area. Things can change, but right now, there's nothing to call home about.
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.
