Langland Bay Surf Guide
Home to a score of breaks, from points, to reefs and beachies, each with its own crews and its own moods. The most famous draw is Crab Island, an offshore reef that sticks its head above water at low tide. The take-off is an elevator drop, which leads into a fast walling right with rewarding barrels in clean swells. Langland Reef (Kevs) is a busy, mid-tide peak with a short left and long right. Middle Of The Bay (MOTB) is a left that breaks into a strong rip opposite The Reef - which is actually a sandbank. Rotherslade Left, out from MOTB, has walling lefts over a low tide sandbank.
