The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s shaping up for our bit of coastline.
To be straight with you, the next couple of weeks are looking pretty bleak. There’s a real dry spell of surf on offer, and for the first ten days or so, it’s a struggle to find anything worth paddling out for. The first real chance of anything rideable doesn’t come through until Tuesday the 4th of August, and even then it’s far from perfect. The real standout, if you can call it that, doesn’t show up until the very end of the forecast.
Langland Point is your only option here, and it’s a point break that’s fairly consistent, but don’t get your hopes up. The water is a whopping 69°F at the start, which is much warmer than usual for this time of year – a real treat if you’re not wearing a thick suit.
The first few days are a write-off. Flat, or close to it, with poor conditions. From Tuesday 28th of July through to Monday the 3rd of August, the combined swell energy is barely a whisper, with readings as low as 2 to 81 (weak). The swell is tiny, maxing out at around 3ft, with short, weak periods. The wind is a mess, mostly cross or cross-on, and it’s going to be a frustrating week for anyone checking the swell.
Then on Tuesday the 4th of August, we finally get a pulse. The morning sees a 5ft swell from the WSW, with a period of 8 seconds and a combined energy of 248 (moderate). The wind is a light cross-offshore, keeping things clean. This is the best of a bad bunch. It’s a solid, punchy little wave for a point, but it’s not huge. Afternoon gets a bit lumpy with a cross breeze.
After that, it’s back to near nothing until the very last day of the outlook. On Sunday the 9th of August, the morning shows a 5ft swell from the WSW, an 8-second period, and a combined energy of 353 (moderate). The wind is cross-off, so it’ll be clean. That’s the biggest wave of the whole period, but it’s still a pretty short period, and it’s over a week away, so you’d want to keep an eye on it. The afternoon wind picks up to a fresh breeze, so the morning is your window.
That’s it. A couple of very average, short-period pulses on offer. The real highlight is Tuesday the 4th of August for a morning session, and maybe a hopeful look at the morning of Sunday the 9th of August. It’s a long wait for very little reward.
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.
