The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's get straight into the scoop for this stretch of coast.
Right, looking at the whole 16-day window, I gotta be honest with you, it’s a tough watch for Abereiddy. The outlook is pretty grim with no decent surf on the cards at all. We’re looking at a blank run that stretches from the start all the way through to the end of the period. There are no standouts, no hidden gems, just a whole lot of nothing to get excited about.
For the rest of July, it’s the same story. The swell is tiny and weak, with combined energy readings mostly in the low tens and twenties (37 to 9), and the wind is almost always coming from the north, putting it cross-onshore or straight onshore. That combo just kills any chance of a clean wave. We get a little bump in energy around the 22nd with a 3.3ft swell from the north, but the wind is still a fresh cross-onshore breeze, making it lumpy and choppy. Not worth paddling out for. The water temp is sitting at 62.1°F, which is pretty much bang on average for this time of year, so at least you won't freeze waiting for a wave that never comes.
Come the 28th of July, the swell tries to lift a little to 3.9ft from the WSW with combined energy hitting 135, but it’s paired with that fresh onshore wind again. It’s just not going to be any good.
As we roll into the first week of August, things don’t improve. There’s a tiny whisper of a 3.3ft swell from the WSW on the 2nd of August, but again, the wind stays onshore. The whole 16-day run is a write-off for any kind of decent surf. It’s one of those periods where the area just goes flat and messy, and you’re better off finding something else to do.
