The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you. The next couple of weeks are looking pretty grim for a proper surf. We’ve got a long stretch of tiny, weak waves ahead.

Right off the bat, for the first few days, there’s basically nothing. We're talking flat spells and knee-high dribble. The swell windows are just not lining up. It’s a tough go.

The first real glimmer of something rideable doesn’t show up until Thursday the 13th. Even then, it’s not going to get the heart racing. Langland Point (Gower) will see some chest-high waves, around 3ft, coming from the WSW. The energy is moderate, with a combined energy reading of 218, and it’s got a bit of period on it. The morning looks cleanest with a light cross-offshore wind, which will help keep the face tidy. You'll have to work for them, but there’ll be a few proper ones to be had.

After that, the surf dips back down, and we get another few days of small, jumbly waves. The wind is all over the place, and there's not much push behind anything.

The next real standout is the following Saturday, the 15th. The afternoon is where it’s at. We get a jump in size to about 4ft, and the wind goes glassy. That’s a big deal for a point break. The ocean will be clean, and even though the period is short (6 seconds), the glassy conditions make it the most fun you’ll have all week. The combined swell energy is reading at 108, so it's moderate and there'll be some fun little runners.

Then, on the morning of Sunday the 16th, we get a proper offshore wind from the NNW. The swell holds around 3ft. It’s still not huge, but that offshore wind will groom it nicely. This is another one to keep in mind.

And finally, to finish the period, the morning of Monday the 17th looks promising. The wind drops to nothing, making it completely glassy. Swell is back up to 3ft with a better 9-second period from the WSW. This could be the cleanest surf of the whole stretch, but it’s a long way off.

Remember, the water temp is a wild 8° warmer than normal for this time of year, sitting at 69°, so a spring suit or maybe even a shorty will be fine.

In the long run, nothing looks like a classic. It's all pretty marginal. But there is a path to get some fun, clean waves on the days I mentioned. You'll need to pick your windows and be patient.

This is Rusty, signing off.

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.
