The Lowdown
Alright, let’s take a look at what’s cookin’ in the surf department for the next couple of weeks. It’s a slow burn, but there’s a little gold at the end if you’re patient.
The first few days, Monday the 24th through Thursday the 27th, are a total dud. Tiny swell, barely 0.6ft, with onshore and cross-shore winds making a mess of it. Water temp’s about normal for this time of year. The wave energy is real weak (20-22), so don’t bother.
Friday the 28th morning gives us a little bump – a 4ft swell from the SW, with a clean cross-offshore wind. Energy’s moderate at 202, but it’s still just surfable, not special.
Saturday the 29th and Sunday the 30th are a washout. Strong winds, rain, and lumpy, chop conditions. No surf to speak of.
Monday the 31st of August is a little better. The morning has a 4ft SW swell, clean cross-off wind, and 237 energy. The afternoon is similar with 5ft and 250 energy. It’s still not great, but it’s the best we’ve seen in a while.
Then we hit a dry spell from Tuesday the 1st of September through Thursday the 3rd. The swell gets bigger – up to 8ft on Wednesday the 2nd afternoon – but it’s messy with cross-onshore winds and choppy. Energy is strong (529-715), but the wind ruins it. Thursday the 3rd afternoon cleans up with a 7ft W swell and 608 energy under cross-off wind, but it’s still a poor call.
Now, here’s the one to circle. Saturday the 5th of September is your best bet. Hit Langland Point in the morning. You’ve got a 5ft swell from the west with a moderate offshore wind from the NW. Energy is moderate at 277, and the conditions are clean. This is the standout – a proper, surfable session. The afternoon is still okay, but the morning is the pick.
If you can hold out even longer, Sunday the 6th of September morning is a real treat. The swell is only 3ft, but it’s a long-period groundswell from the WSW at 19 seconds – that’s proper energy (501). With a gentle offshore wind from the NW, it’ll be clean and lined up. A point break like Langland handles that long period beautifully, so expect some nice, well-shaped waves. Light crowds are possible, but it’s worth the wait.
Monday the 7th of September morning is glassy – 2ft, WSW swell, 15-second period, and 319 energy. That’s a beautiful, clean morning for the longboard or a fun mid-length.
The second week is less certain, but the 5th and 6th of September are the real standouts. Keep an eye on the wind, and you’ll score.

A general guide to surfing at Langland Point can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu.

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.
