The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the cards for Trearddur Bay (Holy Island).
Honestly, it's a tough one. Looking at the whole 16-day window, the dominant story is small, wind-affected swell. The combined energy barely breaks into double digits for most of the run, with values like 11 and 7 showing weak, small waves. We're looking at a long quiet spell, about a week and a half of nothing really worth getting wet for. The first promising sign doesn't show up until *Tuesday the 11th of August*, and even then, it's a mixed bag.
The water temperature is about average for the time of year, nothing weird there.
The one real standout, if you can call it that, is a brief pulse on the Tuesday the 11th of August. The swell bumps up to about 5ft from the SSW with a period of 6 seconds, and the combined energy hits 156 (moderate). That’s the biggest we’ll see. The problem is the wind is a moderate cross-onshore from the SSW at 12 mph, which will make it choppy. It's a bit of a messy one. For a beginner, 5ft is pushing the limit, especially with that onshore wind. The break is inconsistent, so don't expect a set every few minutes.
Before that, on Wednesday the 5th of August, we get a tiny spike of 3ft from the SSW with a light onshore wind. The energy is only 51, so it's weak. The light wind might make it surfable for a longboard on the right tide, but it’s nothing to write home about.
After that Tuesday the 11th, the wind gets stronger, and the waves drop right back off again. The rest of the second week is plagued by fresh to strong breezes, making the conditions pretty lumpy and messy for paddle surfing. With that strong wind and the bigger, but poor quality swell, it might be more of a kite surfing setup than anything else.
Look, it’s a bleak run for Trearddur Bay. Forecasts can change, and it’s a fairly exposed spot, so if the wind swings, it could come good, but based on this, I’d be keeping the board in the van.
Rusty.
