The Lowdown
Alright, let me be straight with you. This 16-day stretch for Langland Point is looking pretty grim. Most of the time, we're dealing with tiny, weak swells and messy winds, so there aren't many windows worth paddling out for.
Right now, through the first week and into the second, the energy is just not there. We’ve got a lot of days with wave heights between 0.3ft and 2ft, but the swell periods are mostly short—under 9 seconds—and the combined energy is weak, often dipping below 100. There’s a little bump around Tuesday the 18th, with a 4ft swell from the west, but the period is a pitiful 6 seconds and winds are messy cross-off, so it’s not going to offer much shape. That window on Friday the 21st morning shows a 3ft west swell with a clean northwest offshore wind, and that’s about the best we get first week—but still, it’s only a 6-second period and the energy is just 97, so it’s more of a longboard session than anything exciting.
Things get a bit more interesting toward the end of the second week. On Thursday the 27th, we finally see a pulse of energy. A 3ft swell from the west-southwest with a 9-second period pushes the combined energy up to 162, which is moderate. But the wind is coming from the east-southeast at 16 mph, so it’s cross-onshore and choppy. Not ideal, but if you’re desperate, there might be something to ride. Friday the 28th is similar but smaller.
Honestly, the only standout here is the morning of Friday the 21st of August. That’s your best bet. A clean 3ft west swell with a light offshore from the north-northwest, glassy conditions, and the break handles a west swell well since it’s exposed to the southwest. It’s not going to be pumping, but it’ll be the most rideable of the whole period. Crowds are sometimes an issue at Langland Point, so expect a few locals out.
Overall, this is a flat-to-poor run. If you’re a beginner, the small stuff is manageable, but for anyone else, it’s a waiting game. The water temperature is about average for the time of year, so no surprises there.
