The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again, but I’ll switch to feet and miles for you.
It’s a rough outlook for Tuckers over this 16-day run. The surf just never clicks. We’ve got strong, cross-onshore winds for most of the first week, tearing up any chance of clean waves. There’s a spike on Monday the 27th of July with a swell hitting around 7ft from the SSW, but it’s accompanied by 25 mph winds from the same direction, creating a huge, choppy mess. The combined energy hits 424 (moderate), but the quality is terrible.
Water temp is about 82°, which is normal for the season.
As we head into the first week of August, the wind finally backs off. By Saturday the 8th of August afternoon, it goes glassy, but the swell is tiny at only 2ft from the NNE. That glass is a big positive, but with a short period of 8 seconds and weak energy (73), it’s not going to offer much rideable face.
The best of a bad bunch is probably Wednesday the 5th of August afternoon, with a 4ft swell from the SE at 8 seconds and light breeze, pushing the energy to 144. It’s still small and mediocre.
Basically, this is a long stretch of poor surf. The wind ruins the first half, and the second half is too small to matter. The only chance for a clean session is that glassy Saturday the 8th of August, but you’ll be hunting for ankle-biters.
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.
