The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty checkin' in from the Gower. Let's get stuck into the Langland Point outlook for the next couple of weeks, mate.
Honestly, if you’re lookin’ for waves right now, you’re bang outta luck. We’ve got a proper flat spell on the way. From now through to the morning of Monday the 19th of August, it’s a total write-off. We’re talkin’ days and days of tiny, weak slop with hardly any energy at all – combined swell energy barely scrapin’ past 100. It’s not even worth paddlin’ out for. The wind is mostly onshore or cross-shore anyway, messin’ up what little bumps there are.
Right, then the big news. Finally, on Wednesday the 19th of August, the whole place lights up. Into the morning, we’ve got a solid 8ft of swell pourin’ in from the WSW. The real beauty is the wind – it’s a clean, offshore N breeze. That’s Langland clean and chuckin’. This is your standout session, no question. The swell’s a bit beefy, and with an 8-second period, it’ll be punchy. This is for the lads who know what they’re doing; it's gonna be too much for beginners. Later in the day it pushes to 8ft, but it gets a bit more cross-off, still clean but gettin’ full-on.
After that little spike, it drops back down quickly. Thursday the 20th is still got some 4ft of WNW swell left in the morning with offshore winds and clean waves. Then we’re into another rough patch – plenty of onshore wind and lumpy conditions for the rest of the run. You get a few days of small, cross-off slop but nothing to get excited about. There’s a pulse of windswell peepin’ in around the 27th and 28th, with waves up to 5ft, but the winds howlin’ SW and cross-shore, makin’ it choppy and messy – more your windsurf/kite surf territory than decent paddle action.
So, to sum it up: save your energy for that Wednesday the 19th, get there early, and enjoy some proper Gower power. The rest is a story of waitin'.
Rusty out.

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.
