The Lowdown
Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s on the menu for the next couple of weeks.
Well, I’ll be honest with you, it’s a pretty flat start. We’ve got a long stretch of tiny, poor surf conditions at Langland Point through to the end of July. The water is sitting at a balmy 69°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year, so at least it’s nice for a swim.
The first real spark of life doesn’t show up until Wednesday the 29th of July. We’re looking at a morning session on the 29th that finally has some juice. The swell is coming from the WSW at 5ft, with a period of 8 seconds. The combined energy is a solid 610, which is strong, and it’s glassy with a light SSW breeze. This is your best bet for the whole outlook, but with that size, it’s going to be solid for the experienced crew only. The wind is perfect, so it should be clean. Expect some crowds though, as it’s a spot that gets busy.
The afternoon of the 29th drops off a bit, with a WSW swell at 5ft and a moderate cross-off shore wind from the W, making it a bit of a mixed bag. The energy drops to 315.
Into the 30th of July, the swell is fading fast. Thursday morning has a 3ft WSW swell, with a weak energy reading of 106, and the wind is light and cross-off, so it’s surfable but pretty ordinary. By the afternoon, it’s back to tiny 2ft stuff.
So, the standout is clear: Wednesday morning, the 29th of July. That’s the one to circle on the calendar. Everything else is a whole lot of waiting.
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.
