The Lowdown
Thursday the 17th through Saturday the 19th stay pretty bleak. The swell bumps up a touch – 1.6m on Thursday and up to 2.0m on Saturday – but the period drops to 7 seconds, meaning it’s messy, cross-shore, and lumpy. Not worth the paddle. Saturday’s afternoon eases a little to 1.9m but the wind stays moderate and the direction is all over the place.
Then Sunday morning the 20th comes in with a bit of relief – still small at 0.7m, but the wind drops to next to nothing and we get a clean, cross-off light air. It’s tiny, super clean, and glassy early. If you’re desperate for a slide, this is the window, but you’re not getting much push out of it. That’s probably the best for the entire run, which says a lot.
The entire second week, from Monday the 21st through to the 1st of October, is a desert. Swell fades to almost nothing, periods get long but weak, and the wind swings east and cross-onshore, killing any chance of clean surf. The 22nd has a small pulse at 0.6m but with a 12-second period it’s weak; it’s still one of the better options purely because it’s glassy in the afternoon. Anything after that is just open water.
Honestly, don’t wet your hair for Langland Point over this forecast. The one small window early Sunday the 20th is about it, and even then, you’re riding whitewater more than anything. There’s no dramatic swell, no big groundswell, just tiny, wind-blown leftovers. If you’re set on a surf, you’re better off waiting for the next real front – this stretch is a bust.

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.
