The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. It’s a strange one for the next couple of weeks. The ocean is just not showing us much of anything. The models are screaming flat, and it doesn't look like we’re going to get any decent surf on the calendar for a while. It’s a tough stretch, plain and simple.
The first real sniff of anything rideable at Abereiddy doesn't even show up until around the 13th of August, and even then, we're just talking about knee-to-waist high dribble. The energy is weak, with readings in the 90s and low 100s. The wind is mostly cross-onshore, messing up what little there is. It’s going to be a frustrating week for anyone hunting waves.
The swell kicks up a bit on the 19th of August. We see a longer-period west-southwest groundswell pushing wave heights to about 5ft, and the combined energy jumps to a strong (232). But, and it’s a big but, the wind is howling from the north-northeast at 22 mph, making it a lumpy, cross-onshore mess. Abereiddy is a sheltered cove, but even it’s not going to be able to handle that. That’s a messy, blown-out day better for watching than paddling. Too much wind chop and not enough shape.
After that, it backs off again, and we’re left with small, weak surf. There is a brief moment on the morning of the 22nd of August where we see some clean conditions with an offshore east-southeast breeze, but the swell is tiny at 1ft.
So what's the best on offer? Honestly, pick your poison. The most promising conditions might be the early morning of the 22nd, the last day of the forecast. The wind is offshore, cleaning things up, and while the waves are small, they might have a bit of period behind them. It’s not going to be epic, but it will be the cleanest we’ve seen. But as a standout, it’s a pretty low bar. Overall, this is a period where the forecast is telling me to catch up on other things. The ocean’s just not cooperating, so don’t get your hopes up.
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.
