The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's cookin' at Langland Point.
Honestly, for the first week and a half, it's a bit of a bummer. We've got a long stretch of small, weak surf with wonky winds. The water is absolutely roasting, coming in at a very unusual 69°F, which is a massive 8°F warmer than it should be for this time of year. That's a real standout.
The first real glimmer of hope doesn't show up until Thursday the 13th of August. We get a late-afternoon pulse of cross-offshore 4ft swell from the WSW, with a period of 10 seconds. The combined energy pushes up to 444 (moderate), which is a solid step-up, but it's only a marginal call. Still, it's the best we've seen in a while.
Then we hit a real standout. Monday the 17th of August is the one to circle on the calendar. A proper clean, cross-offshore groundswell arrives. Morning sees a solid 12ft swell from the WSW at 11 seconds, with a massive combined energy of 2749 (very strong). That's a big, powerful groundswell. Because it's a point break, it should handle that long period energy well and offer some proper, lined-up waves. However, at that size, it's strictly for the experienced crew. The afternoon drops a bit to 8ft, but still a solid, powerful wave. The wind is fresh but cross-off, so it'll be clean.
After that, Wednesday the 19th of August morning looks like a nice little clean-up. A true offshore breeze from the NNW (which is the optimum direction for this spot) will groom a 4ft swell from the WSW. The energy is 311 (moderate), and with those offshore conditions, it's going to be smooth and clean. It's a good, manageable size for intermediates and a much better vibe than the rest of the week. Crowds are possible here, so get on it early.
So, the long story short: it's flat and blown out for a long time. The one true standout is Monday the 17th of August for the big wave chargers, with Wednesday the 19th being a solid, clean option for everyone else.
Rusty.

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.
