The Lowdown
Alright, let’s talk Trearddur Bay. Honestly, mate, it’s a rough one. The whole 16-day stretch is flat as a pancake. Every single time slot is showing poor surf conditions, so there’s no real day to get fired up about. We’re looking at a long, empty run here.
The only break in the picture is Trearddur Bay (Holy Island). It’s a beginner-friendly spot, but it’s inconsistent and rarely breaks. That’s pretty normal for this area, so a stretch like this isn’t unexpected. The swell just isn’t showing.
Let’s go through it. Monday the 3rd starts with a tiny 0.3 ft swell from the SW with a 9-second period, but cross-shore winds make it messy. Basically a pond. Tuesday the 4th sees a little more energy, with a 4 ft swell from the SSW in the morning, but the wind is a fresh cross-onshore at 30 km/h, making it lumpy. The combined energy is only 73 – weak. Wednesday the 5th actually has some size, with 7 ft from the SW in the morning, but it’s onshore with a strong 35 km/h wind, so it’s blown out. That’s too big for beginners, and the quality is poor. The energy hits 305 (moderate), but the wind kills it.
The rest of the week fades fast. Thursday the 6th has 5 ft from the NW but with a cross-shore chop, and it drops off quickly after that. From Friday the 7th through to the 18th, we’re looking at swell heights of 0.3 ft or less, with only a few moments of clean conditions. Sunday the 9th and Monday the 10th have light offshore or cross-off winds and clean surfaces, but the swell is just a ripple – 1 ft and 0.3 ft. The energy is in the single digits. You’d be struggling to get wet.
The water temperature is about average for the time of year, nothing unusual. For an inconsistent beginner spot, this is a total write-off. If you’re really keen, the cleanest windows are on the 9th and 10th of August, but you’ll need a log and a lot of patience. Otherwise, it’s a good time to look at the kite gear if you’ve got it – the 5th and 6th have some wind and swell, but for a paddle, it’s a no-go.
