Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s going on at Langland Bay over the next couple of weeks. Gotta be straight with you – it’s a tough stretch ahead. The opening of the period is pretty grim, and it stays that way for a long, long time.
We kick off Friday the 3rd of July, and there’s nothing doing. Tiny, weak swell around 3ft from the WSW, but the wind is all wrong – cross-on and choppy, making it a write-off. The combined energy is a weak 133, and it just doesn’t get any better. Saturday is more of the same, with a bit of height but period dropping to a low 6 seconds, so the waves are weak and junky, and the wind is still messy. Sunday, Monday, Tuesday... it’s all tiny, with most days seeing waves under 2ft. A couple of clean windows on Sunday the 5th morning and Tuesday the 7th have some cross-off or light winds, but there’s simply no power behind it. The energy numbers are all well under 100, barely registering. This is a real flat spell.
There’s a long, frustrating gap here with no worthwhile surf. Nothing recommended until we finally see a pulse of life on Monday the 13th of July. That morning, the wind goes glassy – that’s the first bit of good news we’ve had. The swell picks up to 2ft from the west with a longer period of 12 seconds, giving us a burst of moderate energy at 97. It’s the only day with a score of 1, which tells you how desperate it’s been, but it’s our standout. The water temp is about average for the time of year. This is the one to keep an eye on; it’s clean and the longer period groundswell could wrap in with a little shape, though it won’t be big. But the afternoon gets ruined again as the wind swings cross-shore and chops it up. After that, the swell tries to push through Thursday the 16th with a bit more height, hitting 3-3ft and moderate energy levels (144-173), but the wind is consistently cross-on or cross-shore, so expect bumpy, ordinary conditions.
Honestly, if you’re itching for a paddle, your best shot is the glassy window on Monday the 13th morning. Don’t expect much else. This area can go quiet like this, and a blank run like this isn’t unheard of. Hang in there.
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.

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.
