The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for the Tweed River Breakwall.

Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – this 16-day window is a bit of a quiet one. Most of the time we’re looking at tiny, weak swell and messy conditions. The Tweed River Breakwall is a consistent spot, but it’s not gonna save us here. The first real glimpse of anything worthwhile doesn’t show up until Thursday the 10th of September, and even then, it’s pretty ordinary.

That Thursday morning, the 10th, is the one standout across the whole period. We’ve got a glassy, clean surface with a light breeze out of the NNE, and the water’s sitting at a mild 69°, which is pretty normal for this time of year. The swell is small, about 2ft from the SE with a period of 9 seconds, and the combined energy is weak (81). It’s surfable, but don’t expect any fireworks. The waves will be small and a bit soft, but if you’re desperate for a paddle, this is your best window. The wind is glassy, and that’s a major positive, keeping things clean.

The other little window that shows a pulse is Friday the 11th of September. The swell bumps up a touch to 3ft from the SE (125 combined energy), but the wind turns cross-onshore in the morning and onshore in the afternoon, so it’s gonna be choppy and messy. Not really worth getting excited about.

Then there’s another glassy morning on Sunday the 13th of September, with a clean 2ft SE swell (100 energy), but again, it’s just ordinary. The same story repeats on Tuesday the 15th of September, with a glassy morning and tiny 2ft E swell (61 energy). It’s surfable, but just barely.

Honestly, this is a long stretch of small, weak surf. The Tweed River Breakwall is an exposed point break that usually handles swell well, but the energy just isn’t there. The best advice I can give is to pencil in the morning of Thursday the 10th for a chance at a glassy session on small waves. The rest of the time, you’re better off checking the forecast again later.

Rusty.

A general guide to surfing at Tweed River Breakwall can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu.

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).
