Alright, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you about Langland Bay. This forecast is a rough one to call. Over the whole 16-day run, the swell is mostly tiny and the conditions are messy. We’ve got a gap of no decent surf right from the start until the 21st of July. That’s over two weeks of looking at flat or poor quality waves here, so don’t get your hopes up early.

First real flicker of life comes on Tuesday the 21st of July, morning session. We’re seeing a jump in the combined swell energy – it hits a moderate 110 in the morning and 117 by the afternoon. Swell height is about 4ft from the WNW, with a period of 6 seconds. That’s short-period wind swell, so it’ll be a bit lumpy and disorganised, but there’s some push there. The morning wind is a clean cross-off from the NE at 15 mph, and by afternoon it drops to a light breeze from the NNE, still clean. The water’s about much warmer than normal, which is a nice bonus.

This is the only time in the whole outlook that even gets a "surfable" nod, so it’s the standout by default. The wave quality is still only described as very ordinary, so don’t expect any stunners. For an intermediate surfer, the size is okay, but the short period means it won’t have much shape or power. The clean wind is the only thing making it worthwhile.

Overall, this is a desperate period for Langland Bay. If you absolutely need a paddle, the 21st of July afternoon might give you a few grovelly rides. Otherwise, it’s a blank run that’s typical for this spot when the swell windows are closed. Stay patient.

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.
