The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty. Let’s break down what’s coming up for Trearddur Bay (Holy Island).
Honestly, the next week and a half is a total loss for any decent paddle surfing. Wednesday 27th August morning has a tiny 0.3 ft swell, and even with a light breeze, there’s just no power. The forecast shows a long stretch of poor surf conditions right through until the morning of Friday 4th September. That’s a solid gap of about a week with nothing worth paddling out for. The swell energy is tiny (22) and when it’s not tiny, the wind is howling onshore, making a mess of things. You’d be better off with a kite if that’s your game, because the cross-onshore winds on Saturday 29th August are blowing 18 mph with a lumpy 5.6 ft swell (combined energy 218), but it’s all chop and no shape for a surfboard.
Now, the one bright spot might be early Friday 4th September. The morning brings a cleaner picture: a gentle northerly cross-offshore breeze will tidy up a 3.6 ft swell from the SW. It’s short-period (5 seconds) and the energy is modest (74), but it’ll be clean. The water temperature is about average for this time of year. Keep in mind Trearddur Bay is inconsistent, so windows like this are rare – don’t sleep on it. It’s surfable but very ordinary. For a beginner-friendly spot, that’s about as good as it gets in this outlook.
Saturday 5th September morning has a glassy start with no wind and a 0.3 ft swell from the SW but a very long period of 14 seconds. The energy is almost nil (16), so it’s a flat spell, not a session.
That’s the story here, folks. A long dry spell, a brief clean-up on Friday the 4th, then back to waiting. Hope the forecasts shift.
