The Lowdown
Right then, folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, I’ve got to be straight with you – this is a bleak run. The entire 16-day forecast window is a write-off for Abereiddy. There’s no standout period, no session to get excited about. We’ve got a solid two weeks of poor surf conditions ahead, with no real recommendations at all. For a spot that’s fairly consistent, it’s a gut punch, but it happens. The good news is it tends not to stay this flat for long, and forecasts can change, so don’t bin the board just yet.
The first day with any potential is Wednesday the 22nd of July, and it’s a non-starter. A weak 3ft of north swell, a pitiful 5-second period, and a 19 mph north wind blasting cross-on makes for a choppy, lumpy mess. The combined energy is a measly 48 – that’s barely a ripple. The water temp is 61°, which is bang on average for this time of year, so no help there.
We drift through the rest of the week and into the next with nothing. The 27th of July (Monday) morning offers a moment of glassy conditions with a slight air, but the swell is a pathetic 2ft, with no energy behind it. You’d be paddling for nothing. The 1st of August (Saturday) morning is also glassy, with a 2ft north swell, but again, it’s a 5-second period and just 17 combined energy. It’s a cruel tease.
The only time the swell even tries to show up is on the 2nd of August (Sunday) morning, with a 4ft north swell. That’s the biggest of the whole run. But the combined energy hits 133, which is moderate, and the period is still a short 5 seconds. It’s a messy, wind-affected wave. By the afternoon, a rain shower and cross-on wind ruin it anyway.
The final week just fizzles out. The 6th of August (Thursday) has a 4ft WSW swell with a 6-second period and 129 combined energy, but it’s a cross-shore chop with a moderate breeze. Not worth the drive.
So, bottom line: there’s nothing here. No standout, no best option. Just a long, flat, or blown-out gap. Hang tight, lads. The surf will be back.

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.
