The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the menu for the next couple of weeks.
To be honest, mate, it's a pretty grim run for the first week and a half. We've got a long stretch of flat, weak, or just plain messy conditions, so you're not missing much. The water temp is sitting at 69°, which is a whopping 9° warmer than normal for this time of year – that's a very unusual anomaly, so the water will feel like a bath compared to what you'd expect.
We don't see anything worth paddling out for until Saturday, August 8th. The wait is over a week. That morning, things finally change. A solid new swell pushes in with waves around 6ft from the West, and the combined energy is a solid 323 – that's a proper pulse of energy. The wind is light from the North at 3 mph, which is clean offshore. This is going to be your standout session. However, at 6ft, it's getting a bit too much for the groms and beginners. By the afternoon, the swell drops to 5ft but the wind stays clean, so you'll still get some fun ones.
Sunday, the 9th, follows up with a moderate offshore breeze from the North at 16 mph. The swell is a bit smaller at 4ft, but the conditions are clean. It's a solid follow-up day, but the Saturday morning is the real winner.
After that, it drops back down to nothing again. That's all she wrote, folks. One good morning to aim for.
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.
