Description
Tuckerman's - Rhode Island
Tuckerman's features a right-breaking reef wave characterized by its hollow, fast, and powerful nature, making it a unique find in the area. The bottom consists of sharp coral and rocks, requiring caution. Access involves a short 5-15 minute walk followed by a 10-minute paddle around the reef to reach the break.
This surf spot is best enjoyed at low to mid tide, with optimal conditions arising from a swell coming from the southwest, south, or southeast, and wind from the north or northwest. Despite its quality, Tuckerman's sees few surfers during the week and weekends, allowing for a more relaxed session. However, surfers should be aware of potential dangers such as rips, undertow, and rocky hazards. The scenic approach adds to the experience, making it a worthwhile destination for those seeking a thrilling surf adventure.
