The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s get straight into it.
Honestly, for the next 16 days, the surf outlook for Rhosneigr is a write-off. The guidance file flags the break as fairly consistent for a beginner-friendly spot, but the actual forecast gives us zero rideable waves across the entire period. Every single session is scored as poor surf conditions, so we’re looking at a long stretch with nothing to get excited about.
From Tuesday the 15th right through to Wednesday the 30th of September, we’re dealing with messy, onshore, or cross-onshore winds almost constantly. The combined swell energy is weak, mostly in the tens and low hundreds (max 296), but it never lines up with clean conditions. The best we see is a brief window on Wednesday morning the 23rd, with a light offshore breeze from the NE and 3ft of weak, short-period WNW swell (period 4 seconds). That’s clean but tiny. Then on Saturday the 26th afternoon, there’s a tiny 0.3ft groundswell from the SW with a very long 14-second period, and gentle offshore winds – glassy but basically flat.
For a beginner-friendly, exposed SW-facing beach, these are tough conditions. When there is a bit more energy, like the 6ft SW swell on Saturday the 19th, it’s accompanied by lumpy cross-onshore winds and chop. That combo would be more appealing for kite surfing than trying to paddle out on a shortboard.
So, plain and simple: there are no good surf options on offer in this 16-day window at Rhosneigr. For this area, a blank run like this is not unusual. It tends not to stay poor forever, and forecasts can change.
Rusty.

Information about the Rhosneigr Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Rhosneigr provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Rhosneigr can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Rhosneigr surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Rhosneigr) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. 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 Rhosneigr 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.
