Rhosneigr Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, let’s get this sorted. I’m looking at Rhosneigr for the next couple of weeks, and honestly, it’s a tough stretch. We’ve got a solid run of disappointing conditions ahead.

The first surfable recommendation doesn’t even appear until now, but it’s rough. Starting Friday the 3rd, we’ve got small, weak swell – around 1 ft from the SW, with a short period of just 5 seconds. The wind is cross-on from the SSW at 6 mph, and the wave energy is minimal at (9). It’s just not doing anything. The water temp is about average for this time of year, nothing to write home about.

Through Saturday and Sunday, the wave heights tick up to maybe 3 ft, but the period stays below 6 seconds. That’s weak, crumbly stuff. The wind swings onshore – solidly on – at 15-16 mph, making it choppy and blown out. The combined energy is low (41-46), and it’s still poor. By Monday, we’re back to tiny 1 ft swell. We have a long gap from Tuesday the 7th all the way through to Saturday the 12th with effectively zero surf – just flat spells and clean, empty conditions that are no good for paddling.

There’s a tiny blip on the 13th of July with a long-period swell from the SW at 15 seconds, but it’s only 0.3 ft. That’s a ghost. The energy is (16), but it’s not enough to ride. The wind is light and cross-on, so while the period is promising, the height is a total bust.

The rest of the run into the second week stays flat or tiny, with onshore winds. On the 15th, we see a bit more size – 3 ft from the SSW – but with 16 mph cross-onshore winds, it’s messy and lumpy. The energy is (28), but that’s not going to save it.

Honestly, there is no standout here. Not one day where the swell, wind, and conditions line up. For a spot that can be fairly consistent, this is a dead period. If you’re desperate, the morning of the 13th has that long-period pulse, but it’s a gamble. Otherwise, it’s a waiting game. Forecasts can change, but right now, I’d leave the board in the van.
