The Lowdown
Alright, I’m looking at the charts for this stretch and I’ll be straight with you – it’s a tough run. This is Langland Point, and for the next two weeks, the surf is going to be a real grind. There’s no standout session, no day to circle on the calendar. Let’s walk through it.
Right now, and through the end of August, it’s a write-off. Friday and Saturday have small, weak swell with rain showers and cross-shore winds that are just messy. The water temperature is sitting at 69°, which is a solid 8° warmer than usual for this time of year – that’s a big anomaly, so you’ll be surfing in a bath, but it won’t matter because the waves are poor.
Sunday the 30th bumps up a bit – 4ft to 5ft of swell from the WSW, but period is short, just 8-9 seconds, and the wind is cross-on. The combined energy hits 273 on Sunday morning and 494 in the afternoon, so there’s some juice in the water, but it’s lumpy, choppy, and the quality is shot. Not worth paddling out.
Monday the 31st offers the best of a bad bunch. Morning sees 6ft of swell from the WSW with a 9-second period, and the wind is cross-off from the WNW at 15 mph. The energy is moderate at 624, and the conditions are described as clean. This is the only window that looks half-decent, but it’s still only rated as marginal due to tide or other factors. If you’re desperate, Monday morning is your best bet, but keep expectations low.
After that, it drops off a cliff. Tuesday September 1st through to the 12th, the swell is tiny – mostly under 3ft, often just 0.7ft to 2ft. The wind swings around, but it’s mostly offshore or cross-off, which is clean, but there’s nothing to ride. The energy readings are in the single digits and low teens – weak as dishwater. Periods do stretch out to 10-11 seconds on the 11th and 12th, but with swell heights of 0.3ft to 0.7ft, that’s just a ripple. There’s a big gap from the 1st of September right through to the 7th where there’s basically no surf worth mentioning.
Bottom line: if you’re looking for a wave, Langland Point isn’t the place in this 16-day window. The only flicker of hope is Monday the 31st of August, morning session. After that, hang the board up and wait for the next system.

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.
