Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the menu for Langland Bay over the next couple of weeks.
Straight up, I gotta be honest with you – this is a tough one. We're looking at a long, dry spell. The first solid week of the forecast is pretty much a write-off for any proper surfing. You’ll be staring at tiny, weak waves and dodging wind chop. For the first 10 days, the swell is tiny, barely a ripple, with the combined energy of all swells directed here stuck in the weak range (mostly under 50). The water temp is about average for this time of year, so nothing crazy there.
The first real glimmer of hope, the first time we see a score that gets me excited, doesn't arrive until Tuesday morning, the 21st of July. That's a full 15 days out. So, we've got a big gap of nothing worthwhile before that.
Now, Tuesday the 21st of July is the standout. The morning session is the one to circle. We’re looking at a solid 5 ft swell rolling in from the WSW. The combined energy of all swells directed here jumps to a solid 375 (moderate wave energy), which is a massive step up from the nothing we’ve seen. The wind is blowing offshore from the NNW at 12 mph, which will make for some clean, groomed faces. This is a proper intermediate-level wave, not one for the groms to mess around with at that size, but for the rest of us, it’s the best on offer by a long shot. If you can, wait for it.
The days leading up to that, the 18th, 19th, and 20th, will see a bit of a build, with some clean conditions and offshore winds, but the swell is a bit weaker and the period is short, so it won't have the same grunt. The 20th has some clean morning surf, but the swell is still building.
So, to sum it up: don't even bother checking the charts until the second week of July. The 21st of July is the true standout, but it's a long-range call, so keep your fingers crossed the forecast holds. Until then, the kite surfers might get a look in on the windier days, but for a paddle surfer, it's a waiting game.
Rusty.

Information about the Langland Bay Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Langland Bay provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Langland Bay can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu.

Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Langland Bay may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
