The Lowdown
Alright mate, Rusty here. I’ll level with you – this 16-day stretch is a tough one for Trearddur Bay. There’s only one brief window that’s even worth a look, and it comes with a big caveat.
Trearddur Bay (Holy Island) is a beginner-friendly, fairly exposed spot that needs a SW swell, but for the first nine days, it’s a blowout. Monday the 7th starts with a weak, short-period 3ft SW windswell and a solid 12 mph onshore – messy, no good. That theme sticks around all week: Tuesday the 8th brings a 22 mph cross-onshore wind with waist-high, lumpy 4ft waves, and Wednesday the 9th drops right off to nearly flat. Thursday the 10th afternoon bumps up to 6ft from the SSW, but with a strong 25 mph onshore, it’s a total washout. The weekend of the 12th and 13th offers no relief – Saturday the 12th afternoon pushes 7ft but with howling 28 mph onshores and rain, just terrible. Sunday drops back to small, weak surf.
The water temp is sitting at 62°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, but you won't be feeling it through the wind.
The one window that shows any hope at all is Thursday the 17th of September. We get a pulse of 7ft SSW groundswell (6 second period). That’s a size that’s too much for beginners. The wind is light and cross-shore from the SE at 6 mph, so the surface stays fairly clean, but the comments say it’s “marginal” – likely a tide or bank issue. The combined energy is strong at 333. For an experienced surfer who knows the sandbanks, a clean 7ft day is the only real standout in this whole forecast. The following days drop off hard again, with a long-period 0.3ft SW groundswell on the 21st and 22nd, totally flat and not worth the paddle.
So yeah, it’s pretty grim. A blank run like this is more normal for the area when the Atlantic isn’t playing ball. I’d mark Thursday 17th morning in your calendar, but keep expectations low. The rest is a write-off.
