The Lowdown
Alright, let’s talk Langland Point in feet and miles per hour. Same long sixteen-day window, same slow start. Honestly, the first week is a bust. From the 15th of August right through to the 22nd, it’s just tiny waves and junk wind. You’re looking at long gaps of flat days.
The first real sign of life comes on Saturday the 24th of August. The wind goes glassy from the NNW, just a whisper, and we’ve got a 4ft swell from the WSW. Combined energy is 178 (moderate) – finally some grunt. That glass will make the point look like a mirror. It’s only “surfable but ordinary” quality, but out of this whole run, that’s the morning to be in the water. Crowds are possible, but it’s not a circus.
The next flicker is Tuesday the 25th of August. A 5ft WSW swell hits, with a combined energy of 271 (moderate). But the wind is a light cross-onshore from the SW at 10 mph, so it’ll be a bit bumpy on the face. Marginal stuff.
Now, the big one to watch is Sunday the 30th of August. We’re looking at a 6ft WSW swell, with a clean, moderate offshore wind from the NNW at 25 mph. The combined energy is 286 (moderate). That’s a lot of water. At that size it’s getting into expert territory, and with only a 7-second period it’ll be lumpy and quick, but that offshore wind will be your best friend. That’s the standout for the second week, but it’s a long way off so the forecast might wobble.
Water temp is about average for the season.
So here’s the call: the first week is a write-off. Your best bet is the glassy 24th for a fun, clean paddle. If you want a proper push, cross your fingers for the 30th. Otherwise, polish your board.

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.
