The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Look, I’ll level with you – this isn’t a week for the wave count. Abereiddy’s looking at a long, dry spell with nothing worth paddling out for. The first week is basically a write-off, with tiny, weak swell, average energy rarely cracking 60 (combined energy of all swells directed here). You’ll be bobbing around on waves of 0.7ft to 2ft, and the wind is mostly cross or cross-on, keeping things messy. There’s a brief moment of clean conditions on Monday morning, but with only 1ft on offer, it’s not worth the wettie.
The only real flicker of hope comes in the second week, around Wednesday, 2nd September. We’ve got a pulse of SW swell pushing through – 8ft on the Wednesday morning, building to 10ft by the afternoon. That’s solid, powerful stuff – the combined energy jumps to 961 and then 1809, which is serious. The wind is offshore, so those waves will be clean. But here’s the catch: this is a beach break, and with a period of 9-10 seconds, it’s a shorter-period swell. For a spot like Abereiddy, that’s fine, but at 10ft, this is expert-only territory – too big for beginners. Thursday morning holds at 8ft with clean offshore winds, another good window for the crew who know what they’re doing. After that, it gets lumpy and onshore again.
So, the standout is Wednesday, 2nd September, into Thursday, 3rd September. That’s your best bet, but it’s a long-range call, so keep an eye on it. The rest of the 16 days? A lot of flat, nothingy surf. It’s a tough run, but forecasts can change.
Rusty.

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.
