The Lowdown
Alright, let's talk Langland Point in feet and degrees. This forecast is a tough one to read – there’s a long, flat, blown-out stretch before we get any real hope.
From now through mid-September, the surf is basically non-existent. Sunday the 6th offers ankle-to-knee-high waves around 2 to 3 feet from the west-southwest, but the energy is weak (42 and 52). Water temp is running about 67°, which is 6° warmer than average for this time of year – very unusual, so you might not need a full suit if you’re just sitting in the channel. But there’s no reason to paddle out.
Monday the 7th brings a proper groundswell pulse – 5 feet from the west-southwest, period of 14 seconds, and a combined energy reading of 1234 (moderate-strong). That’s a long-period swell that could wrap nicely into the point. The morning has a light cross-off from the north-west, so it’s clean. The catch is it’s only rated marginal due to possible tide issues, but if you’re going to surf this week, that’s your morning. The afternoon goes cross-shore and choppy.
From Tuesday the 8th all the way to Friday the 18th, it’s a desert. Swell ranges from 2 feet to 5 feet, but winds are fresh onshore, cross-off with short period, or just messy. Every single session is marked poor. Energy values bounce from 49 to 413 but it’s all chop and no quality.
Finally, Saturday the 19th shows some life. The morning offers 3 feet from the west-southwest, period 10 seconds, light cross-off from the north-northeast – clean, but the commentary says “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions.” Still, it’s a 1 out of 10. Then the afternoon turns glassy with barely a breath of wind from the south-southwest, 3 feet from the west-southwest, period 9 seconds, energy at 166. That glassy surface on a point break with small waves is the clear standout of this whole outlook. Crowds are “sometimes” a thing, so on a tiny glassy Saturday, you might have it pretty quiet.
Sunday the 20th and Monday the 21st see a bit more size – around 5 feet and 3 feet – but the wind swings east-southeast onshore, making it choppy and poor again.
So the honest word is: Monday the 7th morning for a taste of that groundswell, and Saturday the 19th afternoon for the glassy small-wave session. Everything else is a skip. Keep watching the charts – it can turn.

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.
