Tweed River Surf Report & Ideal Conditions

Live NOAA data · Updated 2026-08-26
As of the latest buoy reading (2026-08-26 10:00 UTC), Tweed River is off: the live 4–6 ft medium-period swell from the S is off its ideal E direction and is bigger than usual, and the wind is light from the SW. Tweed River is most often good on a 2–4 ft short-period (under 8s) swell from the E, with strong wind from the S, on a high incoming tide — the conditions LazySurfer surfers have logged and rated highest across the surrounding region. It best suits improving and intermediate surfers.

Frequently asked

Is Tweed River working right now?

As of the latest buoy reading (2026-08-26 10:00 UTC), Tweed River is off: the live 4–6 ft medium-period swell from the S is off its ideal E direction and is bigger than usual, and the wind is light from the SW.

Is Tweed River good for beginners?

Tweed River is best for improving and intermediate surfers — it's most often good on 2–4 ft surf, manageable on its smaller days but a step up from true beginner conditions. It also tends to be best when the wind is up, which adds chop, so pick a calmer day while you're still learning. Conditions change daily, so always check the live report on this page before paddling out.

What's the best tide for Tweed River?

Tweed River tends to be best on a high incoming tide — the tide stage LazySurfer surfers have rated highest here. Tide changes how the swell breaks, so check the two-day tide chart on this page for today's high and low times.

What swell direction is best for Tweed River?

The best swell direction for Tweed River is from the east (E). Swell arriving from the east lines up best with how this break faces, which is when LazySurfer surfers have rated it highest.

What's the best wind for Tweed River?

Tweed River is most often good with strong wind from the south (S) — the wind LazySurfer surfers logged on their best-rated sessions here. Wind direction grooms or chops the wave face, so check the live report for current wind.

Where does LazySurfer's surf data for Tweed River come from?

LazySurfer reads public data directly from NOAA's National Data Buoy Center and the National Weather Service — the nearest NDBC wave buoy (station 51214) and the nearest NOAA tide station (PAGO PAGO Harbor, Tutuila Island). The same raw readings NOAA publishes, with no proprietary smoothing.

Does LazySurfer predict whether Tweed River is good for me?

Yes. LazySurfer trains a custom deep-learning model — a PyTorch neural network with per-user embeddings, retrained weekly on real logged surf sessions from the LazySurfer community — to predict the 1-to-5 star rating you personally would give, rather than a single average rating for everyone.
