The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at what’s cookin’ for the next couple of weeks. I’ll be straight with you – this is a tough one for us. The swell window is just not cooperating, and we’ve got a long, quiet stretch ahead.
We start off with a real bummer. From Saturday the 22nd of August right through to the end of the month, it’s pretty much flat. We’re talking tiny dribbles of 0.3 ft to 1 ft from the SW. The combined swell energy is barely a whisper, sitting between 8 and 20 (weak energy). The wind is all over the shop too, mostly cross-off or offshore, but with that little swell, it’s like having a perfect racetrack with no cars. The water is a notable 65°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year, but that’s small comfort when there’s nothing to ride.
The first real chance at anything rideable doesn’t show up until Friday the 28th of August. We finally see a pulse of 4 ft to 4 ft from the SSW, with a short period of 9 seconds. The energy jumps up to 282 (moderate wave energy), but the wind is light and cross-shore, leaving it a bit messy. It’s still listed as marginal, so don’t expect perfection. Saturday the 29th actually brings the biggest swell of the whole run, with 7 ft from the W, but the period is a weak 6 seconds and the wind is a fresh cross-onshore at 19 mph. That’s going to be lumpy, choppy, and honestly, more of a mess for a kite than a surfboard. It’s a similar story through Sunday and Monday, with onshore winds and short-period swell making it a battle.
There’s a flicker of hope late in the window. On Friday the 4th of September, we get a 6 ft SW swell with a 6-second period, and the wind turns cross-offshore from the NNW at 9 mph. The energy is 253 (moderate wave energy). That’s the cleanest window we get, but it’s a two-week wait and the period is still short. It’s a promising sign, but it’s a long-range call, so keep your fingers crossed.
In short, we’ve got a massive gap of flat days, then a few days of blown-out, short-period slop, and one clean-ish day at the very end. The best bet on offer is that Friday the 4th of September for Rhosneigr, with the cleanest winds and the biggest, most rideable swell. It’s not a world-beater, but it’s the standout.
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.
