The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for Langland Point.
We’ve got a long forecast window here, 16 days, but don’t get your hopes up early on. This is a frustrating outlook for Langland Point. The first week is a real write-off. From the 30th of August right through to about the 10th of September, it’s just one thing after another – strong winds, messy conditions, and cross-onshore chop. The swell is around, but it’s been battered to bits. The combined swell energy is weak to moderate, with readings like 267, and it’s just not giving us anything clean. You’ll be sat there watching whitecaps. It’s an ugly run.
Now, there’s a brief glimmer on Monday morning, the 31st of August. Swell is up at 7ft from the WSW with a period of 10 seconds, and the wind turns cross-off from the WNW. The energy jumps to 698 (moderate). The waves will be clean, but the forecast says it’s a marginal one – tide might play tricks on you. Still, it’s the best of that first week. Then it falls apart again.
The real standout, the one you’ve been waiting for, is Friday the 11th of September. Finally. Morning is looking pristine. We’ve got a 7ft W groundswell rolling in, period a nice 9 seconds, and a light offshore wind out of the NW at just 15 km/h. The energy is pumping at 1127 – very strong. This is the call. For an intermediate surfer, that’s a solid, punchy wave with clean faces. The cross-off wind will hold it open. Because it's a point break, that long period will line up beautifully here. Afternoon gets a little busier wind-wise but still clean with moderate offshore conditions and a 6ft swell.
Then Saturday the 12th of September afternoon is a weird one. The swell drops slightly to 7ft from the WSW, but the wind goes glassy out of the east at just 5 km/h. It looks good on the surface, perfect conditions. The water temperature is about average for this time of year.
Keep in mind, Langland Point is fairly consistent, but the crowds do show up here sometimes. On a glassy day, it’ll be busy. If you’re a beginner, the Thursday morning on the 11th of September and the Saturday afternoon, those 7ft+ days are pushing the limit for entry-level stuff; it’s best for intermediates and above.
But honestly, if you only pick one session from this whole 16-day period, make it the morning of Friday the 11th of September.
Rusty.
