The Lowdown
Right then, let’s have a look at what Trearddur Bay (Holy Island) has in store.
Honestly, mate, I’m looking at the next sixteen days and it’s a tough stretch. The swell energy is weak to moderate at best, and the wind is just messy for most of it. We’ve got a long dry spell here with no proper surf on offer until the tail end.
Sunday the 13th and Monday the 14th are a write-off – tiny waves with poor conditions. The swell is only 2ft and 2ft, short period around 5-6 seconds, and the wind is cross or cross-onshore. Not worth paddling out.
Tuesday the 15th through to Sunday the 20th sees a bit more energy, with wave heights creeping up to 6ft. But the wind is cross-on or onshore and strong, making it messy and lumpy. Thursday the 17th has a 5ft swell from the W but with a moderate cross-onshore breeze. Friday the 18th has the biggest swell of the period at 6ft from the SW, but with a near gale blowing 34 mph onshore – that’s blown out, and probably only for experts if you’re desperate. For most, it looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.
We then hit a gap from Monday the 21st to Wednesday the 23rd where the swell drops right off, with tiny waves under 2ft and light cross-onshore winds.
Now, there is a light at the end of the tunnel. Thursday the 24th and Friday the 25th finally offer something clean. Thursday morning we get a 3ft swell from the NW, and the wind is offshore from the NE at just 3 mph. That’s clean surf. The water temperature is a touch warmer than normal for the time of year, sitting around 62°F. Friday the 25th morning is glassy with a 2ft WNW swell and no wind – dead flat calm, perfect conditions for a beginner-friendly wave. The swell period is short (4 seconds), so it won’t have much punch, but for a small, clean wave, it’s the pick of the bunch.
After that, Saturday the 26th and Sunday the 27th see the wind shift onshore again, and the swell drops away. Sunday afternoon the 27th has a 4ft WNW swell with a fresh cross-offshore wind, but that’s still a bit lumpy. Monday the 28th is cross-shore and messy again.
So, the standout here is the 25th of September – Friday morning. It’s the only time we get glassy conditions and a rideable wave. It’s small, but it’ll be clean. If you’re a beginner, that’s your window. Trearddur Bay is inconsistent at the best of times, and this forecast reflects that. It’s a long blank run, but when the wind finally plays ball, it’ll be worth a session.
