The Lowdown
Alright, let’s take a look at what’s on the table for the next couple of weeks, starting from now.
Honestly, it’s looking like a flat spell, and a long one at that. There’s a gap of about two weeks with no real surf to talk about. The first hint of anything comes up on Thursday morning, 30 July, but even then it’s tiny. So don’t hold your breath.
We’ll start with Langland Point. On Thursday morning, 30 July, we’ve got a weak 2 ft swell from the west, with a short period of 5 seconds – not much push behind it. Combined swell energy is low at 27. Wind is cross-off from the northwest at 9 mph, so it’ll be clean, but there’s no size or power. That trend sticks around. Friday morning, 31 July, the swell drops to 0.3 ft, and we see a few days of the same little dribble. By Saturday morning, 1 August, we’re back to 2 ft from the west with a 5-second period and cross-off wind, but energy is still weak at 40. None of this is going to get you excited.
The best of what little we have comes on Monday morning, 3 August. Swell picks up to 2 ft from the west-southwest, with a 9-second period, and combined energy hits 71 – still modest but the best in this run. Wind is cross-off from the west at 6 mph, so it’ll be clean. Even then, it’s barely enough for a longboard or a foiler. Water temp is about average for this time of year – nothing unusual there.
After that, it’s back into the doldrums. The rest of the first week through the second week is all 0.3 ft to 2 ft stuff, with mostly cross-on or cross-off winds, and energy readings in the single digits or low teens. There are a couple of glassy windows – Sunday afternoon, 2 August, goes glassy with a light easterly, and Wednesday afternoon, 12 August, goes glassy too – but with swell that small, it’s more of a paddle and a tan than a surf.
So, bottom line: this is a blank stretch. If you’re a beginner, the tiny stuff on 3 August might be okay for learning, but otherwise, keep your board in the car and your hopes low. The pattern suggests it’s not unusual for this area to have quiet runs like this. Forecasts can always change, but right now, there’s nothing to shout about.

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.
Langland Point is 9 km (6 miles) from Swansea. If you plan a holiday in Wales - Gower, look for hotels and other accommodation in Swansea. Swansea has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
