The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer for Abereiddy over the next couple of weeks.
To be straight with you, it’s a grim start. We’re looking at a solid week of poor surf conditions through to the 12th of September. The wind is just all wrong – mostly cross or cross-on, and often strong, blowing the waves apart. The swell is there at times, with moderate energy readings (464 on the 4th), but it’s messy and lumpy, not worth paddling out for. It’s going to be a long wait.
The first real glimmer of hope comes on the morning of Sunday the 13th of September. That morning, the wind drops to absolutely glassy, with a calm sea. The swell is a modest 1.6m from the SW with a short period of 6 seconds, and the energy is low (159). It’s not going to be epic, but it will be surfable and clean. For a beginner spot that’s fairly consistent, this is your first real chance to get a few soft runners.
Then, Monday the 14th of September morning is where we get a standout. The wind is glassy again, with a slight air from the NNE. The swell is 1.3m from the WSW, but the period jumps to 9 seconds, giving it a bit more shape and push. The energy is moderate (395). This is a groundswell, and for a spot like Abereiddy, which is fairly exposed to a WSW swell, the direction is spot on. The water temp is 17°, which is about normal for this time of year. This is the best on offer – clean, fun waves for a beginner or someone looking for a cruisy session. Expect crowds sometimes, as it’s a popular spot when it’s clean.
After that, the surf drops off again quickly. The rest of the second week is small, weak, and mostly blown out by fresh winds. There’s nothing else worth chasing.
So, to sum it up: the first week is a write-off. The only real highlight is the morning of Monday the 14th of September. If you can get out then, you’ll be rewarded with clean, glassy waves. The long-range looks flat, so make the most of that window.
Rusty.

Information about the Abereiddy Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Abereiddy provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. 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.
