The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again, giving it to you straight for Abereiddy. For the first week, honestly, it’s a dry spell. Don’t bother paddling out unless you just want a scenic float.
From now through the morning of the 24th, there’s precious little. The swell is tiny and it’s mostly getting chopped up by onshore wind. The water temp is about normal for this time of year.
A little bit of hope shows up on the afternoon of the 25th (Tuesday). We’ve got a 1.4m swell coming from the SW, but with a short 6-second period. The wind swings cross-offshore and goes light, so it’ll look clean. It’s surfable, but it’s just ordinary. Not a stand-out.
Hold out for the 29th of August. Saturday morning is the pick of the whole forecast. We’re looking at a clean 4ft swell from the SW with a light offshore breeze out of the SE (moderate breeze). The combined energy is 112. Abereiddy is a fairly consistent beginner-friendly spot that faces the right direction. Since the wind is offshore and the conditions will be clean, this is the one window where it’ll really come together. Keep in mind, this spot can get crowded sometimes, so plan for that.
After that, things go downhill. The last few days of the forecast see a big swell build up to a massive 10ft on the 31st, with energy over 1400, but it's getting absolutely destroyed by strong cross-onshore winds. That much swell with that wind is just a washing machine, and it’s more of a kite-surfing situation than something you want to paddle out into. The period stays short, so there’s no long-period groundswell to make it worth the fight.
So, save your energy for the morning of Saturday the 29th. It’s the only real highlight in a pretty quiet two-week stretch.
Rusty.
