The Lowdown
Alright, mate, Rusty here. Let’s break down what’s in store for the Tweed River Breakwall.
First up, the next week and a half is pretty cooked. We’re looking at a long stretch of poor surf from now right through to around the 22nd of August. The wind is all over the place – mostly cross or onshore – and the swell is either tiny or chopped up. Not much to get excited about.
The window finally opens on Sunday, the 23rd of August. That’s our standout. The swell bumps up to a clean 5ft from the E, with a period of 9 seconds – that’s a solid groundswell. But the big news is the wind: a gentle offshore from the W on Sunday morning, so the surface will be glassy and clean. The combined swell energy reads 440 (moderate), so there’s good power behind those waves. Water temp is 69°F, which is pretty average for this time of year.
I’d be aiming for Sunday, 23rd August morning. The Breakwall is a point break that loves an ENE swell, and we’re getting a clean 5ft E swell with light offshore wind. It’ll be lined up and just right for an intermediate surfer. Just keep in mind, crowds are often a thing here, so get there early.
Monday the 24th is still a good option. Swell drops to 4ft to 4ft from the E, but the period stretches to 10-11 seconds by the afternoon. That longer period means better shaped waves with more energy and longer waits between sets – perfect for a point. The wind stays offshore or cross-offshore, so it’s clean. Not as powerful as Sunday, but a solid session to finish up.
Honestly, there’s nothing else worth chasing in this 16-day outlook. The early days are all poor, and the swell that shows up on the 22nd is too big (7ft) and comes with a cross-onshore wind – messy and only for experts. Stick to the 23rd and 24th for the goods.
Rusty.
