The Lowdown

Alright folks, it’s Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s shaking for the next couple of weeks.

To be honest, it’s a quiet stretch. We’ve got a long gap of small, weak swell and often crummy winds. The first real chance of anything worth paddling out for doesn’t show up until Sunday the 9th of August, and even then, it’s not a classic. For most of this period, you’re better off finding something else to do.

Langland Point – The first few days are a write-off. Through the end of July and into early August, the swell is tiny (0.3ft to 2ft) and the combined energy is weak, never breaking 100 (most readings are in the single digits or teens). The water is much warmer than normal for this time of year, a notable 5°F above average, but that’s about the only highlight. Winds are mostly cross-off or glassy at times, but there just isn’t enough wave to work with. The period is short, mostly under 10 seconds, so the waves have no punch. It’s a frustrating wait.

We get a bit of a bump on the morning of Saturday the 8th of August, with a 3ft swell from the WSW, clean cross-off wind, and the energy climbs to 71. Still, the period is a short 6 seconds, so it’s going to be weak and soft. The afternoon flatlines again.

Then, finally, Sunday the 9th of August morning is the best of the bunch. We’ve got a 4ft swell from the WSW, which is a decent size for a point break, and the wind is offshore from the north. The combined energy hits 176, which is moderate. The period is 7 seconds, so it’s a short-period windswell, not a groundswell, but the offshore wind will clean it up. This is your best bet, but it’s still pretty ordinary. The afternoon drops off to 4ft and the wind swings cross-off, losing the clean offshore texture.

After that, the surf fades again. The second week of August is back to small, weak swells (0.7ft to 2ft) with onshore or cross-shore winds. The combined energy is negligible. The 11th of August has a glassy morning with 2ft from the WSW and a 9-second period, but it’s just not enough to get excited about.

So, the standout is the morning of Sunday the 9th of August. It’s the only session with a proper offshore wind and a wave height that offers a real ride. Everything else is a long wait for very little. It’s a tough outlook for a point break that needs a proper swell to come alive.

Stay patient, and keep an eye on the charts.

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.
