About Tweed Heads entrance coastal bar

Tweed River is immediately southward of Point Danger and the breakwaters, which are about 180m apart, from the entrance to the estuary. The river is popular for a wide range of boating activities and is home to a commercial fishing fleet.

This webcam is located within the breakwaters and shows conditions at the entrance. To see conditions on the waters immediately outside the entrance, switch to the Tweed Heads web camera.

Plan ahead

When planning a bar crossing or going offshore, carefully consider the suitability of your vessel to handle the conditions.
