The Lowdown
Rusty here again, same story, different numbers.
For the Tweed River Breakwall, the pick of the next 16 days is a narrow window. Water temp is about 70° right now, normal for the season.
The session to lock in is Wednesday the 22nd of July in the morning. Swell is 5ft from the east, 9-second period. Combined energy is 465 (moderate). The wind is glassy - dead calm - so you’re looking at perfect, clean lines wrapping around the point. Crowds are often, so don’t sleep in.
Thursday morning the 23rd of July still has 4ft east swell with glassy conditions, but the energy drops to 289 and it’s a bit weaker. After that, it’s a long drought. From Thursday afternoon (23rd) all the way until Tuesday the 5th of August, waves are tiny - mostly 1ft to 2ft - with cross or onshore breezes. Not worth it.
The only other option is Wednesday the 5th of August with a clean offshore wind and 2ft swell from the east-northeast, but it’s short period (7 seconds) and weak energy (74). Surfable but ordinary.
Stick with Wednesday the 22nd. That’s the one.
Rusty.
