Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s going on at Faria for the next couple of weeks.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – it’s a tough stretch. The next week and a half looks pretty grim for a proper paddle session. We’ve got a whole lot of small, weak swell and the wind is almost always on it or cross-on. The water is sitting at about 64°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so at least a wetsuit isn't a total misery.
The first real flicker of life doesn’t show up until the 18th of July, Saturday morning. The swell comes up a bit to 2ft from the SW, with a very long period of 18 seconds. That’s a long-period groundswell, and even though the energy is moderate (342), it’s still got that cross-on wind messing with the surface. It’s a marginal call at best.
Honestly, the only thing that gets my heart beating a little faster is the 19th of July, Sunday morning. We finally see a clean-looking slot: offshore wind from the SW at 6 mph, and the swell pushes up to 3ft from the S, with a decent 14-second period. The energy is strong (569), and with that light offshore breeze, Faria should actually have some clean, workable lines. The wind is onshore, so it’s glassy. That’s your one standout window. After that, it drops back into the small stuff.
If you’re a beginner, that 3ft is fine. The rest of the period is tiny, mostly 1.0ft to 2ft, so it’s not a danger zone. But for the first 10 days, this is a kite-surfing setup if anything – the wind is light, but the swell is weak and the quality is poor.
For the 19th, it’s a definite go. The rest of the window? Better luck next time. Keep an eye on the long-range, but treat anything after the 20th as a long shot.
Rusty.

Information about the Faria Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Faria provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Faria can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Faria 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 (Faria) 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 Faria 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.
Faria is 15 km (9 miles) from the city of Ventura. If you plan a vacation in Ventura County, look for hotels and other accommodation in Ventura. Ventura has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
