The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, let’s break down what’s happening at Tweed River Breakwall.
It’s a slow burn to start. Monday the 3rd and Tuesday the 4th are flat and ugly – no use to anyone. Wednesday the 5th morning has a glassy surface, but the swell is only 3ft with weak energy (131), so it’s a light session at best.
The real highlight is the morning of Sunday the 9th. We’ve got a 4ft east swell with a 9-second period, glassy wind, and moderate energy (208). This is the cleanest, most promising window in the whole forecast. The break is a consistent point, and the swell is coming from the east, which matches what it likes. Just know that crowds are a regular thing here, so plan to be there early.
Monday the 10th morning is still glassy, but the swell drops to 3ft and the energy is lower (134). Still a decent session if you missed Sunday. After that, the wind gets messy and the swell stays small, rarely above 3ft through the rest of the week. The water temp is 69°, which is normal for this time of year.
The second week is quiet. There’s a couple of clean mornings on the 13th and 14th with offshore wind, but the swell is tiny (3ft to 2ft) and the energy is weak. Not worth planning around. The rest of the 16 days is mostly small and chopped up.
So, the only real standout is Sunday morning, the 9th of August. Glassy, clean, and the best energy on offer. The rest is a waiting game.
Rusty.
