The Lowdown

Imperial

Alright mate, I’m gonna level with ya. The outlook for the next sixteen days is a tough one. We’re looking at a long stretch of hardly anything worth paddling out for. The first real chance of a wave that’s even worth a mention doesn’t show up until the end of the first week, and even then, it’s a real struggle.

The water is warm, coming in at a balmy 70°F, which is a whopping 7°F warmer than usual for this time of year. That’s a proper anomaly, makes it feel like a bath.

Faria is a beach and reef setup, and it’s fairly exposed to a SW swell. The problem is, the swell we’re seeing is tiny and weak, with the combined swell energy only hitting 285 (weak) initially. The wind is a constant issue too, mostly onshore or cross-onshore from the WSW or SW, which is just gonna chop it up.

The best of a bad bunch might be the morning of Friday the 31st of July. We’ll see a 3ft swell from the S, with a period of 14 seconds. That’s a bit of long-period groundswell, which has some energy, but it’s a long way from the ideal SW direction for the break. The wind is light from the SW, so it’s onshore but light. The combined energy is 430 (moderate). It’s still marginal, but it’s the best looking window we’ve got.

After that, it’s back to the same story. The swell drops off again, and by the 2nd of August, we’re back to small, weak, and messy. The energy falls to 155 (weak) and by the 3rd of August we’re at 84 (weak). It’s a flat spell.

Honestly, this is a lean run. The waves are small, the wind is poor, and the quality just isn’t there. It’s a quiet stretch for the beach. Keep the board in the car and the wax in the wrapper, because there’s not much to get excited about.

Keep an eye on the charts, but for now, don’t hold your breath.

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.
