The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the table for Langland Point over the next couple of weeks.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – it's a tough start. We're looking at a long, dry spell with nothing worthwhile for the first week. From Thursday the 23rd right through to the end of July, it's flat or tiny. We're talking about knee-high dribble at best, with a few days of clean conditions but absolutely no push. The water temperature is sitting at 69°, which is a good 9° warmer than usual for this time of year – that's really unusual. You could swim, but you won't be surfing.
The first real sign of life doesn't show up until Saturday the 1st of August. The swell finally kicks up, but it comes with a catch. The wind is light and cross-onshore, and the swell is coming from the WSW at 7ft to 8ft with a period of 9 seconds. The combined energy jumps right up to 686, then 1131 – that's serious power. But this is a big, raw swell and the wind isn't ideal. The conditions are labelled as marginal, so it's going to be a rough, lumpy mess. Honestly, with that much power and the wind direction, this looks a lot more interesting for the kite surfers than for us paddle guys. This is definitely for the experts only.
The following Sunday, the 2nd, is a write-off with rain and onshore wind, and the swell drops back off. By Monday the 3rd, it's back to small, choppy stuff. There's a brief flicker of hope on Thursday the 6th of August. The wind swings around to the NW, blowing offshore. The swell is a weak 3ft from the east with a period of just 4 seconds, so it's windswell, not groundswell. The energy is low at 43. It'll be clean, but don't expect much power behind it.
The standout here, if you can call it that, is without a doubt Saturday the 1st of August. Even though the wind is rubbish, the sheer size of the swell (8ft) from the southwest will mean Langland Point is absolutely heaving. It's for experts only, and expect crowds because the place is fairly exposed and people will be out. If you're a strong paddler looking for a battle, that's the day. The other potentially clean window is the morning of Thursday the 6th, with a light offshore breeze, but it's a very small, weak swell.
So, to sum it up: a long flat spell, then one big, dirty day for the brave, and a few clean but tiny windows. Not the best stretch, but forecasts can change.
Rusty.

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.
Langland Point is 9 km (6 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.
