The Lowdown

G’day, I’m Rusty.

Alright, let’s have a look at what’s on offer at Tweed River Breakwall over the next couple of weeks. Straight up, I’ll be honest with you – this run looks pretty grim for a solid stretch. The first half of the window is mostly tiny, messy, and lacking any real punch. The water temp is sitting right around average for this time of year at 69°, so nothing weird there.

The first spark of any real energy doesn’t show up until Sunday the 2nd of August. On Sunday morning we’ve got a 3ft swell from the ESE with a short 6-second period and a moderate 185 combined energy – still pretty ordinary. The wind is a gentle cross-shore, so it’s not completely blown out, but this is more of a paddle-around than a proper session. That afternoon, the swell drops to 2ft but the period jumps to 15 seconds, giving a 371 combined energy. That’s a long-period groundswell, but it’s coming from the SE with a light cross-onshore breeze, so it’ll be a bit bumpy. A point break like this can handle that long period, but the size is small.

Monday the 3rd of August sees a glassy morning – 3ft from the SE with an 11-second period and 191 energy. Clean conditions, but the wave quality is only ordinary. It’s surfable, but you’ll be scratching for a decent ride.

The standout session, if you can call it that, is Tuesday the 4th of August. It’s a tiny 1ft swell from the ESE with a 9-second period and only 67 energy, but the wind is a light cross-offshore from the NNW, so the surface is clean. It’s not going to light your world on fire, but if you’re desperate for a gentle, glassy slide, that’s your best bet across the whole forecast.

The second week stays very lean. There’s a morning on the 10th of August with a 2ft swell from the east, 9-second period, and a light offshore from the WNW – clean again, but small. The 13th of August shows a bump in size to 3ft from the SE, 9-second period, and 150 energy, but the wind is cross-shore, keeping it choppy. By the 16th of August, we get a jump to 5ft from the SE with a short 7-second period and 390 energy – but the wind is a moderate cross-onshore, so it’s going to be a messy, choppy mess. That’s more of a kitesurfing kind of day than a paddle-surfing one.

All in all, there’s no real standout here. The best advice I can give you is to pick a clean, small morning and enjoy the peace and quiet. Crowds are often around here, but with surf this average, you might have the place to yourself.

Rusty.
