Langland Bay surf guide

Langland Bay is a well-known surf spot in South Wales, attracting surfers of various skill levels throughout the year. It features a mix of beach breaks, reefs, and a point, offering something depending on the surf conditions and tides. The beach can get quite busy, especially during the summer months, when local surfers and visitors flock to the area, making for a lively atmosphere. With beachfront parking available, it’s easily accessible, though you’ll need to pay for parking. The surrounding environment is decent, but there are some rips and rocks to watch out for.

The surf here is versatile, breaking off various points and reefs, but it’s best when the swell comes from the Southwest (SW). You can expect wave heights from around 1 meter (3 ft) to 2.5 meters (8 ft). At high tide, The Shorey is a popular choice, while Rotherslade lefts and The Reef can start to work as the tide drops. When it’s low tide, spots like the Middle of the Bay, the Sandbar, and Shit Pipe become crowded options. The wave direction alternates between left and right, with some fun beach breaks and several walling rights, making it a suitable place for various board types, including shortboards, fish, funboards, longboards, bodyboards, and even SUPs. 

While most of the spots work throughout the year, the best time to surf is between September and February. It’s important to note that the local vibe can be competitive, so respect is appreciated. Rips and rocks create hazards, so be mindful while paddling out, especially when it's big. The conditions can vary a lot, so keeping an eye on the tides is crucial for finding the best peaks in clean swells.

Readme

Welcome! If you’re new to surf forecasting, check out this quick guide.

Forecast Cheat Sheet

Short on time? Focus on wave energy. It’s the best single metric to gauge how big and powerful the waves will be.

Click any table cell to jump to that forecast hour. The map will update with forecast arrows, so you can see if wind and swell direction are lining up.

Use the table sidebar to switch units for height and speed.

Log your surf sessions to compare forecasts with real sessions and sharpen future predictions.

On the map, click a metric label to bring that arrow to the front — handy when arrows overlap.

Models and Updates

Surfnerd blends multiple global and local wind and swell models using advanced interpolation and spatial techniques to create an "ensemble" forecast. Forecasts are refreshed hourly.

Surf Predictions

Our AI-driven algorithm scores surf quality, shown by green, orange, and gray dots. Each forecast hour is rated for wind, swell, and tide quality, then combined into an overall score. Here’s the scale:

Perfect
Good
Average
Bad or No Data

Session logs also feed the algorithm — the more you log, the smarter your forecasts get.

With Surfnerd, no more "you should have been here yesterday"

Wind certainty

Wind certainty tells you how much the weather models agree on the forecast.

  • High certainty: Models agree closely; forecast is reliable.
  • Medium certainty: Some disagreement; conditions may shift slightly.
  • Low certainty: Models diverge; treat forecast with caution.

We calculate this by comparing wind speed, gust and direction from multiple models (like GFS, ECMWF, Arome, and Harmonie) and seeing how closely they match. They are weighted, meaning that some models count more than others, depending on how good they are for a certain spot.
