The Lowdown

Alright, it's Rusty here. Let's have a look at what Langland Bay has in store for us.

The next 16 days are a bit of a mixed bag, to be honest. We're not looking at any classic, no-brainer days, but there are a few windows that'll get a surfer out of bed. The water is sitting at 69° which is much warmer than normal for this time of year, so you won't need the thickest wetsuit.

We kick off on Saturday the 25th, but honestly, it's a write-off. Tiny swell of 1ft, a short period of 4 seconds, and a cross-offshore wind. The combined swell energy is a very weak 7. It's just not doing anything.

Sunday the 26th picks up a bit. The morning sees a 5ft swell from the west with a 7-second period and a clean cross-off breeze. The combined energy is moderate at 181. It's not perfect, but it's the most promising look of the early days. The afternoon gets a bit lumpy as the wind swings cross-shore and picks up, so the morning is your window.

Monday the 27th drops back down to 3ft, and the wind is cross-shore, messing up the surface. Not great.

There's a long, flat, and poor stretch from Tuesday the 28th right through to Friday the 7th of August. The swell is tiny, the wind is mostly onshore or cross-shore, and the scores are all zero. There are a few moments of glassy conditions on the morning of Friday the 31st, but with only 2ft of weak, short-period swell, it's barely a ripple.

Now, the standout is the window around Saturday the 8th of August. Saturday morning clean with a 5ft swell from the west-southwest (7-second period) and a light cross-off breeze. The combined energy is strong at 319. The afternoon gets even better: 6ft from the same direction, the period stretches to 10 seconds, and the wind stays clean cross-off. The energy jumps to a very strong 860. This is the best of the forecast. It's not a massive day, but it's clean, has some push, and with a 10-second period, those waves will have some shape. This is definitely the one to circle.

Sunday the 9th is still in the mix, with a 5ft swell and clean conditions in the morning, but it's not as strong as Saturday.

So, there's a lot of waiting around for that Saturday the 8th of August. The rest of the time is flat or poor. But if you're keen, that Saturday morning and afternoon at Langland Bay is where you want to be. The water is warm, the wind is off, and there's some proper energy in the water.

That's the long and short of it.

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.
