The Lowdown
Alright, listen up. It's Rusty here.
Honestly, for the next 16 days, the surf scene around Trearddur Bay is looking pretty grim. We're staring down a long, flat spell with nothing but small, wind-chopped slop for the most part. You're gonna want to keep the board in the car for a while.
The first week is a write-off. We're talking about waves under 3 feet with weak energy all week. We've got moderate breezes and cross-off winds, but the swell just isn't there. Even with a bit of a bump on Saturday the 29th and into Sunday, it's all short-period, junky stuff, and the wind is going to be all over the place, mostly cross-onshore and lumpy. There's a real gap here where there's just nothing to get excited about. We finally see some proper size on the 1st of September, with a 6ft SW swell, but the wind is howling onshore and the energy is all over the place. It's a mess.
We get a bit of a break on the 2nd, but it's tiny again. Then the ocean gets angry on the 3rd and 4th. On the 4th, we're looking at a serious 10ft SW groundswell, but it's being battered by near-gale-force onshore winds. That's a washing machine, not a surf break. It's going to be a brutal paddle and probably pretty chaotic. This setup looks far more interesting for the kite surfers than for us paddle surfers.
After that, it fades again. The 6th has some cross-off wind and a 5ft WNW swell, but it's not consistent. Then it drops to nothing again. There's another stretch of flatness from the 7th to the 8th.
The only real glimmer of hope, and I mean the *only* standout in this entire window, is on the 10th of September, which is a Thursday. We've got a clean 8ft SW swell with a light, cross-off wind from the NNW. That will be the best on offer, no doubt. It's big enough to be fun but still manageable. It's still a week and a half out, so don't bank on it, but it's the one to keep an eye on.
Trearddur Bay (Holy Island) is a beginner spot that's inconsistent, and with most of these swells coming from the SSW and SW, they'll be close to, or squarely onshore for it. All things considered, it's going to be a long, frustrating fortnight. Hang tight.
Rusty.
