The Lowdown
Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you about Trearddur Bay. I’ve looked over the next couple of weeks, and honestly, it’s a rough stretch for paddle surfing. There are no good surf options in the entire 16-day window.
Right off the bat on Saturday the 25th, we’ve got a weak 3 ft swell from the WSW, but with a short 4-second period and a moderate breeze blowing onshore from the SW, it’s just messy. The combined energy is only a paltry 30, so there’s no grunt to it. The water’s 62°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, but that’s small comfort when the waves are junk.
Sunday the 26th brings a bit more size, up to 5 ft from the WNW, but the period is still short at 6 seconds and the wind is a fresh cross-onshore at 22 mph. The energy bumps up to 153, which is moderate, but it’s lumpy and ugly—definitely not one for the log. That trend of poor conditions just keeps rolling. Monday and Tuesday are the same story: small, onshore, and generally uninspiring with energy readings mostly below 30.
We hit a bit of an improvement on Friday the 31st, with light cross-offshore breezes and clean conditions, but the swell is tiny—only 2 ft at best. You could probably cruise a foamie around, but don’t expect a real wave.
The first week of August doesn’t offer much hope either. There’s a small bump on Saturday the 1st with a 4 ft SW swell (energy 95), but it’s blown out by a fresh onshore wind. And then from the 5th through the 9th, the energy drops into the single digits and teens, with a few 0.3 ft to 0.7 ft pulses that are barely a ripple. Even a long-period swell on the 6th (13 seconds) has zero power behind it.
This is one of those blank runs that’s pretty normal for the area when the stars don’t align. The setups here are mostly beach and reef, so with the significant wind and poor quality, this looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. Don’t hang your hopes on this forecast; it tends not to stay this poor for long, so check back with me in a few days.
Rusty.
