The main North Uist break is Hosta, which faces northwest and is usually small and soft, but on the right swell, it can fire.
A lot of other bays nearby are worth a check for small but consistent surf.

This graph shows the percentage of days that had a ridable wind swell (7 seconds period or more) or groundswell (10 seconds period or more) of over 3ft. It also shows the dominant wind direction. Not all of these days will neccessarily give great surf, and very short lived wind swells or longer period secondary swells may produce surf not recorded, but it gives a clear idea of the seasonal trend and a rough guide to the chances of scoring something ridable.
