The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Look, I’ll be straight with you – for the next 16 days, the surf situation at Langland Point is a rough one. We’re looking at a long stretch of poor conditions, so don’t get your hopes up for any epic sessions. The overall pattern is a lot of wind and messy swell, with only one real window that might get your heart pumping.
The first bit of rideable surf we see is on Saturday, September 5th in the morning. There’s a 3ft swell rolling in from the west, but it’s a short-period wind swell at 7 seconds, so it’s a bit gutless. The combined wave energy is a moderate 131, which is okay, but the wind is a cross-off from the WNW at 6 mph, so it’s actually clean. The water temp is about average for this time of year. It’s surfable, but honestly, it’s very ordinary – not something I’d race out of bed for. Crowds are possible here, so you might have some company.
Then we hit a big dead zone. From Saturday afternoon all the way through to Sunday, September 13th, it’s a write-off. The wind swings onshore and gets strong, the swell drops, and the scores are all zeros. For a stretch of over a week, it’s just poor surf conditions – you’d be better off doing something else.
Now, here’s the one standout, and it’s a bit of a tease. On Monday, September 7th, we get a proper pulse in the morning. The swell jumps to 6ft from the WSW with a very long period of 13 seconds – that’s groundswell, boys. The combined wave energy is a massive 1369, which is strong to very strong. This is a point break, so that long-period swell will wrap in nicely, though it might break a bit straight if you’re not careful. The wind is a cross-off from the west at 12 mph, so the face should be clean. This is a big, powerful swell, and it’s over 5ft, so it’s not for beginners – you’ll want some experience. The morning is the call, because by afternoon the wind picks up to 19 mph and turns cross, turning it into a lumpy mess. The water temp is still about average for the Gower. This is your best shot in the whole 16-day window, but it’s a short-lived window.
After that Monday morning, it’s all downhill. We’re talking days and days of onshore gales, chop, and tiny swell – from Tuesday, September 8th, right through to the end of the period on Sunday, September 20th, it’s all poor. The swell drops to 0.7ft or 1.0ft, and the wind is either howling onshore or cross-off, but there’s just no energy. The combined wave energy drops to single digits or low double digits – weak stuff. It’s a sad sight. For a spot that’s fairly consistent, this is a rough run, but it tends not to stay poor for long around here, so keep an eye on the forecasts.
Alright, get out there if you can on Monday the 7th, but don’t expect much 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.
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.
