Llangennith / Rhossili surf guide

Llangennith/Rhossili is a well-known surf spot located on the Gower Peninsula in Wales. This area features a stunning three-mile stretch of sand flanked by dunes, making it a popular choice for surfers of all levels. The beach is generally crowded during the holidays and weekends, but there's often space to spread out, especially farther down the beach. The local vibe here is relaxed, making it a nice place to enjoy a day on the water.

The surf here can be quite average, yet it's known for being consistent, picking up swell from the southwest, west, and south directions. It can handle swell sizes from about 0.6 meters (2 feet) to 2.1 meters (7 feet). The waves are primarily beach breaks, offering both left and right-handers. Generally, this spot is great for beginners, as the waves lack real punch but do deliver fun rides. That said, at larger sizes, the paddle out can be a tough battle against the whitewater with not much of a channel to help. It’s ideal to surf during low to mid tides, but it works across the tide as well. The spot is best when the wind is blowing from the east.

There are a few things to keep in mind when surfing here. The break is over sand, which is forgiving but you should watch out for rips that can form when the swell is bigger. The various board types you might consider bringing include shortboards, funboards, longboards, fish, SUPs, and bodyboards, making it versatile for different skills and preferences. Autumn is the prime season for clean swells, particularly from September to November.

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.
