The Lowdown
Alright, let’s talk about Langland Point. The next week or so is pretty grim, a lot of windy, messy conditions from the 26th of August right through the 4th of September. The water temp is a balmy 68°, which is way warmer than usual for this time of year.
Our first real chance for a surf comes on the morning of Wednesday the 2nd of September. It goes completely glassy with a 3ft swell from the west at 8 seconds. The energy is minimal, but it’ll be clean and you’ll get a wave. The afternoon stays glassy with a 3ft swell.
The real standout is Saturday the 5th of September morning. We’re looking at a 5ft swell from the WSW with a solid 11-second period, a proper groundswell. The combined energy is strong, and with a light offshore breeze from the northwest, it’s going to be clean as a whistle. This is a point break, so that longer period will wrap in nicely. It’s fairly consistent, though you might see a few other heads out there as crowds are only sometimes an issue. This one’s good for intermediate surfers.
Thursday the 10th of September morning also looks promising with a 6ft swell from the WSW, a 10-second period, and that big energy reading. The wind is cross-off from the northeast, keeping things clean.
After that, the swell fades and the wind turns messy again. So, your best bet is the morning of the 5th of September, with the 10th as a solid back-up. The rest is a waiting game.

Information about the Langland Point Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Langland Point provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Langland Point can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Langland Point 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 Point) 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 Point 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.
