The Lowdown
Right, let’s have a look at what’s on offer for Abereiddy over the next couple of weeks.
To be straight with you, this stretch is looking pretty quiet for a while. There’s no surf worth paddling out for right now, and it’s going to stay that way for a good long run. We’re talking about a gap that goes all the way from the start of the forecast through to late next week.
The first hint of anything rideable shows up on Tuesday morning, 4th August. That morning at Abereiddy we’ve got a 5ft swell from the SW, period of 10 seconds. The wind is light and blowing onshore from the NNW, which is better than a full gale, but it’s not clean. The combined energy is 451 (moderate wave energy). It’s still only a marginal call, and the afternoon drops right off.
The real standout – such as it is – comes on Sunday, 2nd August. That afternoon we’re looking at 10ft of SW swell, period 9 seconds, with cross-shore winds from the WSW at 19 mph. That’s a lot of water moving, combined energy reading 1121 (strong to very strong wave energy). This is solid, powerful stuff, but it’s big. Over 8ft, this is expert territory only. The wind is cross-shore and lumpy, so the surf will be messy and challenging. Abereiddy is a fairly exposed spot, and with this size and chop, it might actually be more interesting for kite surfing than a traditional paddle session.
Monday morning, 3rd August, still offers a decent 7ft from the WSW, period 8 seconds, with a gentle cross-onshore breeze. Combined energy at 527 (moderate to strong). That’s a step down in size but still a handful, and the quality is only fair.
Later in the week, Tuesday 5th through Thursday 7th August, we see a drop in size and a return to mostly poor or very small surf. The water temperature is about average for this time of year, nothing unusual there.
All in all, if you’re a beginner, stay well away from 2nd and 3rd August. If you’re an expert and you don’t mind a bit of wind chop, that Sunday afternoon might give you some raw power to play with – but don’t expect perfection. For the rest of the window, Abereiddy is flat or close to it.
