The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for Langland Point over the next couple of weeks.
Right, straight up, the outlook for this stretch is a bit of a tough one. We’ve got some size coming through, but the wind is going to be a real pain for most of the period. The water is sitting at a very unusual 68°F for the time of year, which is a solid 7°F warmer than normal – you won’t need a thick wetsuit, that’s for sure.
Looking at the forecast, there are a couple of moments that might be worth a paddle, but it’s going to be a waiting game. The first bit of hope comes in on Saturday the 5th, with a small but real chance. Saturday morning shows a clean, glassy 3ft swell from the WSW, with almost no wind. The energy is weak (98), so don’t expect barrels, but a log or a mid-length should get you gliding around. It’s the only time the wind really behaves for us.
We get a bit of a pulse on Monday the 7th. The morning shows a clean 6ft swell from the WSW (moderate energy at 961), with a nice cross-offshore breeze. That could be fun on the high tide if you can get an angle, but it gets lumpy by the afternoon. The swell is pretty short-period (8-9 seconds) through this whole window, so it’s mostly windswell rather than proper groundswell.
After the 7th, it’s pretty grim until Thursday the 10th. Thursday afternoon is the real standout here. We get a 6ft swell from the WSW with a proper offshore breeze (NNW 12 mph), and the energy jumps to a solid 666. That’s the pick of the entire forecast. The wave comment finally says “expect good surf conditions,” and with that clean offshore flow, Langland Point should be offering up some clean, racetrack lines. It’ll be for the intermediate crew though – not beginner territory at that size.
After that, it fades fast. The rest of the run into the second week is small, with messy wind or massive blowouts. The 14th and 16th of September are an absolute write-off – gale-force winds and tiny, choppy sections. The last few days of the window are basically flat with a side-shore breeze.
So, if you’re keen, the main events are Saturday morning the 5th for a super clean, small-wave cruise, and Thursday afternoon the 10th for the best chance of a proper wave with the offshore wind. Don’t hold your breath for anything else.
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.
