The Lowdown
Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the menu for Langland Point over the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, if you're chasing a wave, you're in for a long wait. The first real glimmer of something surfable doesn't show up until Friday the 28th of August, and even then it's a bit of a wildcard. The whole first week is a write-off. We're talking about flat, tiny, wind-chopped slop with energy readings barely cracking double digits. It's a proper drought. The water's a balmy 70°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year, but that's about the only positive.
The one standout window is the afternoon of Friday the 28th. The swell finally kicks in, with a 5ft groundswell from the West wrapping in. The period is a clean 8 seconds, and the energy jumps to a solid 516 (moderate to strong). But the real kicker is the wind: a clean offshore from the NNW, 16 mph. That should groom the point into something worth paddling out for. It's a pretty solid offering for a spot that's been dead, but it's a one-off.
The consolation prize is the morning of Thursday the 3rd of September. The swell is 5ft from the WSW, with a 8-second period and 274 energy (moderate). The wind is a light cross-off, almost glassy. It's a good, clean option, but it's still not the charm of that Friday. The rest of the run is plagued by choppy, cross-shore winds and lumpy conditions, keeping the scores low.
So, bottom line: if you're a patient surfer, mark your calendar for the afternoon of August 28th. That's the one true standout. The break is fairly consistent, so it should handle the swell, but it can get crowded sometimes. Everything else is a case of waiting for the next forecast to change. Keep your eyes peeled.
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.

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.
