The Lowdown

Right then, let's have a look at what's on the cards for Langland Point over the next couple of weeks. To be straight with you, the pickings are slim for a proper paddle session. The forecast is showing a real struggle to get any clean, well-shaped waves with decent wind. There are some small windows of opportunity, but you've got to be patient.

First off, we kick off on the 1st of September with a small 3ft swell from the WSW, but it's a short period of just 5 seconds, so there's no grunt to it. Combined energy is a weak 48, and that cross-shore breeze from the WSW at 16 mph is messing it up. It’s just poor. That theme carries on for the next few days – a bit more size, but always the wrong wind or a choppy mess. There's a brief chance on the morning of Friday the 4th with clean conditions thanks to a light WNW cross-offshore breeze and a 5ft swell, but the period is a paltry 7 seconds. It's a bit gutless, really. The water temperature is a notable 68°F, which is much warmer than you'd expect for this time of year.

Then there's a big lull. From Saturday the 5th right through to Monday the 7th, the swell drops away to nothing worth mentioning. The combined energy figures are pathetic, sometimes below 50. It's a proper flat spell.

Now, here’s the one glimmer of hope. On Monday the 7th of September, things start to change. The morning sees a 5ft swell, but with a 13-second period. That's groundswell energy! The combined energy jumps right up to 713, which is moderate to strong. The wind is a light cross-onshore from the SW at just 6 mph. It's marginal, but that longer period means there's some proper shape to be found, especially around the point. The afternoon gets a bit more size, 6ft, and a 12-second period with an 834 combined energy. The wind shifts to a cross-shore from the WSW at 12 mph, which is not ideal, but with that much energy, the point will handle it. For Langland Point, this is the standout. If you can get out on the Monday morning, that's your best bet. The long period means the sets will be well-spaced, making the paddle out easier, but the waves will have some punch.

After that, it's back to the same old story. Tuesday the 8th is blown out with a strong breeze, and it's messy. There are a few cleaner windows later in the week on Wednesday the 9th and Thursday the 10th, but the swell is small and weak. The 10th of September morning has a 4ft swell and a light cross-offshore breeze making it clean, but the period is only 6 seconds. Surfable, but ordinary. The real energy from the 7th is the one to aim for. Don't get your hopes up for the second week; it's a lot of wind-affected, weak swell.

So, in a nutshell, sit tight for the start of the week. Monday the 7th of September is your only real window for a decent session with some proper groundswell energy. It’s a long wait, but it might just be worth it.

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.
