The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s happening with the waves over the next couple of weeks.

Well, I’m not gonna lie to you, the outlook for Langland Bay is a tough one. For the next two weeks, we’re looking at a real flat spell. From now until around the 9th of August, the surf is just not there. We’re talking tiny, weak waves that barely push 1ft to 1ft, and most of the time the wind is messing up what little is on offer. The combined swell energy is mostly in the single digits or low teens (33, 20, 11, 16), which is basically nothing. There are a few clean moments, like Thursday the 30th of July morning with a clean cross-off breeze and 3ft of swell from the west, but the energy is still weak (52). It’s a real bummer. The crowds are often here, so that’s a bit of a pain, but honestly, with this lack of surf, you won’t have to worry about sharing.

The blank run is long. We’re looking at a solid 12 days of barely anything rideable. The water temperature is about average for the time of year, so no wetsuit drama at least.

Now, there is a hint of hope right at the very end of the run. On the morning of Wednesday the 12th of August, the wind finally goes glassy, and we get a whisper of a 3ft groundswell from the WSW. The combined energy bumps up to a moderate 160, and the conditions are described as glassy. The swell period is 9 seconds, which is a solid, clean groundswell. This is the only real standout in the whole forecast. It’s the one window where you might get a few clean, surfable waves. It’s not big, it’s not epic, but after two weeks of nothing, it’ll feel like a gift. The break is a fairly exposed bay, so that 3ft swell from the WSW should wrap in nicely. Keep an eye on this one, but remember it’s a long way off and things can change.

Since the swell is under 5ft, it’s fine for all levels. The crowds are often here, so expect a few others with the same idea.

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. Our Langland Bay surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Langland Bay) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. 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.
