The Lowdown
Alright folks, let’s have a look at what Trearddur Bay (Holy Island) has got cooking over the next couple of weeks. I’ve got to be straight with you—this one’s a tough read. The water is sitting at a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, about 62°, but that’s about the only gift the ocean is giving us.
Honestly, for the entire 16-day window, there’s not a single moment I’d point you toward the water with a board. From Saturday the 12th right through to Sunday the 27th of September, every single entry is flagged as poor surf conditions. We’ve got a long stretch here with no real recommendations – over two weeks of flat or messy dribble.
Let’s break it down. On Saturday the 12th, we see a 6 ft swell from the southwest, but it’s got a short period of just 7 seconds and a fresh 22 mph onshore wind. The combined energy is moderate at 314, but it’s all windswell and blown out – not worth paddling out for.
Sunday the 13th drops right off to 2-2 ft, light cross-onshore winds, tiny wind ripples. Monday through the following week is more of the same: small cross-onshore chop, periods mostly under 6 seconds, and the combined energy rarely cracking 100. There’s a brief blip on Wednesday the 16th with a 5 ft swell from the NW and combined energy of 124, but again – fresh cross-shore winds and lumpy conditions kill it.
Even when we get a bump to 6 ft on Friday the 18th with 176 combined energy, the wind is howling onshore at 22 mph. And the following days just keep delivering strong onshore breeze and messy, lumpy seas. There’s a tiny moment on Wednesday the 23rd where the wind goes glassy in the morning, but with only 1.0 ft on offer and a combined energy of 2, you’d be better off sunbathing.
After that, it’s all tiny, weak, and mostly cross-onshore. The swell direction is all over the place – SW, W, NW, S – but none of it lines up with a clean, rideable wave. Trearddur Bay is a beginner-friendly, fairly exposed southwest-facing break, but even beginners need something to push them. For the whole second week, we’re looking at knee-high slop at best.
This blank run is pretty normal for the area when the conditions don’t line up. It tends not to stay poor forever, but this stretch is a long one. If you’ve got a kite, you might find something fun on the windier days – the beach setup could handle that. But for a paddle surfer? Leave the boards at home.
Stay patient, friends. The ocean will come back around.
