The Lowdown
Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what we’ve got on the horizon for Abereiddy.
Honestly, looking at this whole 16-day run, it’s a tough stretch. We’ve got a long, dry spell of flat or poor waves coming our way. There’s basically nothing worth paddling out for from now all the way through until the morning of Friday the 21st. That’s a solid 11-day gap with no real surf. It’s going to be quiet.
Things finally try to stir to life on the morning of Friday the 21st. The swell bumps up to about 4ft out of the WSW, and the real kicker is that the wind goes glassy. For a spot like Abereiddy, that’s a rare treat. The water temp is sitting at 63°F, and with an anomaly of 2°F it’s running a touch warmer than average for this time of year, which is nice. The combined energy is still low at 89, showing it’s just a little pulse of life. This is the standout moment in an otherwise bleak outlook.
After that morning window, the wind swings hard onshore and the surf gets messy again. The swell builds to 5ft but it’s crossed up and lumpy. Then Saturday the 22nd and Sunday the 23rd see a bigger, more powerful swell push through, with heights over 7ft and combined energy jumping up to 624. That is strong energy, but the wind is all wrong – cross-onshore and choppy. This setup at a beach and reef spot like Abereiddy would be more interesting for the kite surfers than us paddlers. It’s also too big for beginners and raw for anyone but experts.
We get another fleeting chance on Monday morning the 24th. The swell drops right back to 1ft from the WSW, but with a very long 14-second period and glassy conditions again. That long period will mean well-shaped, clean little runners, but the energy is very weak (86). You’d be on a log, not a shortboard, and you’d be hunting for the fun ones.
This is a classic case of a wave-starved region. We just don’t get many consistent pulses through here, and this forecast proves it. Stick with the dawn patrol on the 21st if you’re desperate, but don’t hold your breath.
Stay salty,
Rusty
