The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again. Let’s talk Langland Bay in feet and Fahrenheit, because I know some of you think that way. The next 16 days are a tough watch. There’s a big, empty gap of nothing until we finally see a little bump around the 26th of July. The ocean is just not cooperating.
The water is a warm 69°F, which is much warmer than usual for this time of year. It’s nice for a swim, but not for a wave.
Right now, through to the morning of Saturday the 26th of July, it’s flat. Tiny swells, mostly under 2ft, with short, weak periods. The combined energy is pathetic, mostly in the single digits (like 5, 3, 9). It’s just a flat, lifeless ocean.
We finally get a pulse on the 26th of July. The Sunday morning brings a 4ft swell from the WNW with a 6-second period, and the combined energy hits 184 (moderate). The wind is cross-off from the NNW at 12 mph, which will keep the surface clean. But with that short period, the waves will be soft and lumpy. It’s the best we’ve got, but it’s nothing to write home about. The afternoon drops to 2ft, still clean, but small.
The next morning, the 27th, is glassy calm with a 2ft west swell, but only 29 energy. It’s pretty, but not surfable.
The 29th of July Wednesday morning brings another little pulse: 3ft from the west, 6-second period, energy of 138 (moderate), and clean cross-off winds from the NNW at 19 mph. Same story – short period, soft waves.
If you’re really itching, the 26th and 29th of July mornings are your only real chances, but they are poor. The rest of the 16 days is a total bust. The combined energy is mostly in the single or low double digits. For a spot that’s usually fairly consistent, this is a real dry spell. Things can change, but right now, I’d leave the board at home.
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.
Langland Bay is 8 km (5 miles) from Swansea. If you plan a holiday in Wales - Gower, look for hotels and other accommodation in Swansea. Swansea has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
