Tween Waters is a stretch of beach located about a mile and a half south of Redfish Pass, right in front of the Tween Waters marina. It's not a specific break, but more like a beach spot that can offer some fun sessions depending on the conditions. While it may not be the go-to surf destination for many, it’s worth checking out if you're in the area. Just be mindful of the parking situation; it can get a bit messy, so keep an eye out for signs to avoid getting towed.
The surf here can be described as dumpy, with waves that might get hollow at times and offer occasional sections. The spot can handle swell sizes from 1.2 meters to about 2.4 meters (4ft to 8ft) from the Northwest, North, and Northeast swell directions, with waves breaking left and right over coquina sand. It works best with low to mid tide, making it suitable for beginner, intermediate, and expert surfers. Paddling is usually easy, although it might get a little tougher on bigger windswell days, so be prepared for that. The preferred winds come from the North, North Northeast, and Northeast, so keep an eye on the weather if you want to catch some decent waves.
As for the crowd, it can be hit or miss. Due to the parking issues, not too many surfers make the trek here, but those who do might be a mixed bag. The vibe can be a bit iffy, especially with the locals who have been around for a while. Environmental factors can impact your session, so check the season—best times to surf are during the fall, spring, and winter. Don’t forget to bring your shortboard if you’re planning to ride the waves!
