The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the cards for Langland Point for 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 solid run of flat, poor conditions for the first week and a half. From Friday the 17th right through to Wednesday the 29th, it's basically a write-off. Tiny waves, if any, and the wind is all over the shop. You'll be staring at a lot of flat, clean water, but not much to ride. The water temp is a whopping 69°, which is way warmer than normal for this time of year, so at least a dip won't be a shock to the system.
Now, we finally get a little pulse of life on the morning of Tuesday the 29th of July. It's not much, with a 6ft swell from the WSW, but the wind is light offshore from the north, keeping things clean. The energy is moderate at 260, so it's surfable, but the conditions are still pretty ordinary. The real standout, the one you've been waiting for, is the afternoon of Wednesday the 29th of July. The swell pushes up to a solid 10ft from the WSW, with a period of 9 seconds. That's a decent amount of energy – 1128 – and with a light cross-offshore breeze from the north, it's going to be clean. This is a big swell though, over 8ft, so this is one for the experienced crew only. It's a standout window, but it gets a bit messy after that.
Thursday the 30th of July still has some size, with 10ft swell from the W in the morning, but the wind switches to a cross-shore, and the energy is very strong (1463). The conditions are marginal, with a bit of chop. The afternoon drops to 8ft, still a lot of juice (1098), but the cross-onshore wind won't help. This is still big, expert-only territory.
After that, it fades fast. Friday the 31st of July drops to 5ft, and by the 1st of August, we're back to small, choppy nothing. So, if you're an experienced surfer, circle Wednesday the 29th of July afternoon. That's the one. For everyone else, keep the board in the car and wait for a better forecast.
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.

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.
