Langs beach Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you. The next couple of weeks are looking pretty flat and quiet for Langs beach. We’ve got a long stretch of nothing happening before things finally wake up. Don’t get your hopes up for the early part of this run.

We’re starting off with a real dud. The first few days, through Wednesday and Thursday, are barely breaking. You’re looking at ankle-biters, maybe 0.7ft to 1ft with weak energy (32 and 17). The wind is offshore and clean, but there’s just no swell to work with. It’s a glassy, pretty ocean, but not one you’d want to paddle out into. Forget it.

Friday and Saturday aren’t much better. The swell is tiny, coming from the NE with a long 16-second period, but it’s just a whisper of energy (23 and 17). The wind is all over the place, light and cross-shore, so the surface is messy. There’s nothing here to get excited about.

Then, on Sunday the 9th, things finally change. The swell bumps up to 7ft from the north, and the energy jumps to a strong 456. The wind is light and cross-offshore out of the SW, which should keep the face clean. This is the first real surf of the period. The period is a short 7 seconds, so it’ll be a bit crumbly, but it’s rideable. This is the first one to circle on the calendar.

Monday the 10th should still be fun, with 4ft from the NNE and clean conditions in the morning. The energy is moderate at 238. It’s a step down from Sunday, but still worth a paddle.

The standout of this whole stretch looks like Tuesday the 11th. The swell holds at 5-5ft from the NNE, with a slightly better 9-second period and strong energy (388 and 334). The wind is offshore and light, keeping things clean. This is the best combination of size and quality we’ll see for a while.

After that, things start to taper off. Wednesday the 12th drops to 4ft, and the energy weakens. The swell fades into the middle of the week before a bit of a bump on Thursday afternoon the 13th, with 7ft but a short 6-second period. It’ll be lumpy, but there’s some push behind it.

The next day, Friday the 14th, has some size too, but the wind turns onshore and the conditions get messy. It’s not worth the hassle.

From the 15th onwards, it’s a return to small, weak surf. We’re looking at 1ft to 2ft for the rest of the window, with energy levels dropping to double digits. The winds are mostly light and variable, but there’s no power in the water. It’s a flat spell, and that’s just how it is. The long-range forecast doesn’t show anything promising for the second week.

So, if you’re keen, make the most of Sunday the 9th, Monday the 10th, and especially Tuesday the 11th. That’s your window. After that, it’s time to find another hobby.

Rusty out.
