The Lowdown
Alright, I’ll run through it again, this time in feet and miles per hour.
Straight up, the whole 16-day stretch is a tough one for Trearddur Bay. First few days from Monday 24th August to Thursday 27th August are totally flat—basically 0.3 ft or less, with poor conditions. The water temp is 63°, which is a touch warmer than the usual for this time of year. But the swell? Nothing.
There’s a break on Friday 28th August morning when the swell bumps to 3 ft from the SSW, with a short 8 second period and combined energy of 101 (moderate). The wind is cross-onshore from the W at 9 mph, making it fairly choppy. That’s the faintest hope. Saturday 29th is a dud. Sunday 30th gets chunky in the afternoon—6 ft from the SSW, 6 second period, energy 255 (strong), but cross-onshore winds at 22 mph. It’s lumpy and borderline kite-surf territory.
Monday 31st August offers 5 ft from the NW with a 6 second period, energy 250 (strong), and the wind goes cross-shore from the NW at 9 mph in the afternoon. That might be your best shot, but it’s short period and won’t hold shape well.
Rolling into September, the 1st and 2nd are small and messy. Wednesday 3rd September brings 6 ft from the SW with a 6 second period, but the wind is a near gale 34 mph cross-onshore—completely blown out. Not worth it.
Sunday 6th September sees the biggest swell of the period: 15 ft from the SSW, 9 second period, and energy at 3237 (very strong). But the wind is onshore from the SW at 12 mph. That’s huge, messy, and dangerous for a beach break. Only for experts, and even then, it’s ugly.
Monday 7th September holds 8 ft from the WSW, cross-onshore wind at 22 mph, energy 484 (strong). Again, lumpy and poor.
No standouts. The best you might get is Monday 31st August afternoon or Friday 28th August morning, but both are average at best. Otherwise, it’s a long stretch of poor surf. For Trearddur Bay, that’s just how it goes sometimes. Forecasts can change, but right now, I’d say hang it up.
