The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's take a look at what's happening at our local spot, Rhosneigr.
First up, I gotta be straight with you – the next week and a half is looking pretty bleak. We've got a long dry spell on our hands. From Friday the 14th all the way through Wednesday the 26th of August, the wave energy is just pitiful. We're talking tiny little wind slop under 1 ft with periods so short they're basically just texture on the water. The combined energy is in the single digits and low double digits for most of that stretch – that's basically flat, mate. You're better off finding another hobby for a while.
Now, the water is a talking point. When we finally see some life, the temp is sitting at a very warm 64°F, and that's a massive 4°F warmer than average for this time of year. That’s seriously notable – the water is much warmer than we'd expect.
The only real light at the end of this tunnel, and I mean the *only* one, is way out on the horizon. We're looking at the first few days of September – specifically the 28th and 29th. On Friday the 28th, a proper SW groundswell is forecast to roll in. We’re looking at a chunky 12 ft SW swell with a period of 8-9 seconds. The combined energy is a massive 1729 to 1788 – that is strong, very strong energy. The wind is looking clean, coming fresh offshore from the ENE and N. But here's the kicker, and it's a big one: 12 ft is way too big for Rhosneigr. This is a spot that gets messy when it gets big. For the hardcore, experienced crew only, and even then, it's going to be a beast. The day after, Saturday the 29th, it drops to a still-juicy 8 ft WSW swell, but the wind and tide won't be as aligned. Still big, but maybe a touch more manageable for the bold.
Honestly? The 28th is the only standout in the whole 16-day window, and it's a high-performance, high-danger day for experts who know the bank inside out. A rare, rare event but not for the faint of heart.
That's the long and short of it. Hang tight.

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.
