The Lowdown

Alright folks, this is your local surf reporter Rusty here, and I've gotta be straight with you – the next couple of weeks at Langland Point are looking pretty grim. We're staring down a long, flat spell with barely a ripple to get excited about for the first week.

We're looking at a lot of nothing right through the first week of August. From the 7th right up until the morning of the 13th, it's all small, weak windswell with heights barely scraping 2 ft. The combined energy is just a whisper (12 to 96), and the wind is mostly cross or cross-onshore, making for a choppy, poor surface. There's a glimmer of a glassy moment on the morning of the 10th, but with only 0.7 ft of swell, it's a lake, not a surf. You'd be better off polishing your board. This is a solid 6-day gap with no real surf on offer.

Finally, on the morning of Thursday the 13th, we get a pulse. The swell picks up to 3 ft from the WSW, with moderate energy (103). The wind swings light cross-offshore, and the report says "clean". This is the first surfable moment we've seen, but it's still pretty ordinary. It's a slow start, but at least you can get wet. The afternoon goes to mush again, though.

It's a bit of a tease after that. The following days through the weekend of the 16th-17th see the swell trying to build, but the wind keeps kicking up a cross-chop or staying onshore, ruining the quality. The energy climbs into the moderate range (111 to 142), but the conditions are "poor". The morning of Monday the 17th is our next real chance. We've got a 4 ft clean swell with a light cross-offshore breeze and a combined energy of 142 – it's surfable, but still nothing to write home about.

The real standout, and I mean the *only* standout in this whole 16-day window, is shaping up for the afternoon of Tuesday the 18th of August. Now, this is over a week away, so treat it as a promising but not locked-in call. The swell is due to hit 5 ft from the WSW, and the combined energy jumps to 300 – that's a solid, moderate push with some real grunt behind it. The wind is a moderate cross-offshore, keeping things clean. The report even says "marginal surf forecast or questionable tide conditions", but for this spot, this is the best pulse of the entire forecast. The period is a short 7 seconds, so it'll be a bit disorganised and won't have that long-period drive, but with those conditions, it's the best we're going to get.

After that, the 19th and 20th keep a bit of size (4 ft to 4 ft) and clean cross-off winds, but the energy dips back down. The morning of the 21st sees a bigger 6 ft swell from the WSW, but with a fresh 22 mph cross-onshore wind, it'll be a messy, lumpy disaster. That's more for kite surfers than paddle surfers. That swell drops to 4 ft by the morning of the 22nd, but with a strong cross-offshore breeze, it'll be clean but blown out.

So, to sum it up: the first week is a write-off. The only real session to circle on your calendar is the afternoon of Tuesday the 18th. It's not a classic, but it's the best of a bad bunch. Keep your expectations low and your eyes on the sky.

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.
