The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what Trearddur Bay (Holy Island) has in store for us over the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it’s a pretty bleak picture for the first week, and then some. The opening days are looking like a write-off. From Sunday the 19th right through to Monday the 27th of July, the surf is just not there. We’re looking at a solid 9-day stretch with nothing worth paddling out for. The water is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year at 62°F, but that’s about the only thing going for it.
We do finally see a pulse of energy on the 28th of July, Tuesday morning. The swell jumps up to 5ft from the NW, with a period of 6 seconds. That’s short period, windswell, and the combined energy sits at 171 (moderate). The wind is a fresh cross-onshore from the WNW at 22 mph, making it lumpy. It’s not clean, but for a spot that’s been flat for over a week, it’s the only thing that’s going to break. The waves are in the paddling range, but the wind is going to mess with the shape. This is really the only day that offers any sort of wave, so if you’re desperate, that’s your window.
After that, it drops back to tiny, inconsistent dribble from the 29th of July through to the 3rd of August. The swell is never more than 2ft, and the wind does turn cross-offshore from the NNW, which is a positive, but the energy is so weak (anywhere from 1 to 16) that it’s barely surfable. It’s clean, but clean and flat is still flat.
So, the standout – and I’m using that term loosely – is the morning of Tuesday the 28th of July. It’s the only day with any real size and energy, but it’s not going to be pretty. The rest of the run is a bust. For a beginner spot that’s inconsistent to begin with, a blank stretch like this is more normal than not.
Rusty.
