Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer for Abereiddy.
Honestly, mate, I’m looking at the full sixteen days and it’s a pretty grim picture. There’s not a single session that scores well enough to get me out of bed early. The first proper surf recommendation doesn’t even show up because the conditions are just that poor right from the jump. We’ve got a long gap of day after day where there’s nothing worth paddling out for.
Starting off on Thursday morning the 9th, it’s glassy with no wind and a tiny 0.3ft SW swell, but the wave comment says it all – poor surf conditions. That little combo of a 12-second period and weak energy (11) is just not doing anything. The water temp is sitting at 61°, which is about normal for the time of year, so at least you won’t be shocked by the cold.
The rest of that week and into the next is a write-off. We get a bit of a bump on Saturday the 11th morning with a 4ft NNW swell and moderate wave energy (116), but the wind is a moderate cross-shore and the period is a short 6 seconds, so it’s going to be a messy, choppy mess. Not worth it. The following days are all the same story: small, weak swells, onshore or cross-offshore winds, and lumpy conditions. Nothing clean.
We roll into the second week, and it’s more of the same. A few days with 3ft swells from the north, but always with a cross-onshore wind, lumpy conditions, and poor surf quality. There’s a brief moment on Saturday the 18th afternoon where the wind goes directly onshore, which is about the only change, but the swell is only 2ft, so no dice.
In short, there’s no standout here. No session worth highlighting. The whole sixteen-day window is a blank run for decent surf. Abereiddy just isn’t firing, and with that kind of persistent onshore flow and weak, short-period swells, it doesn’t look like it’s going to turn around. Sometimes the forecasts change, but right now, I’d leave the board in the shed.
Rusty.

Information about the Abereiddy Surf forecast

A general guide to surfing at Abereiddy 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).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Abereiddy may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
