Table - best surf conditions forecast for Faria over the next 16 days.
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s break down what’s on the radar for the next couple of weeks. It’s a quiet stretch to start, with nothing worth paddling out for in the first five days.
The first little window shows up on Sunday, July 12th, but it’s a low-key affair. Swell is tiny, only 2 ft out of the SSW, and the period is short at 14 seconds. The combined energy is weak at 140. The wind goes glassy that Sunday afternoon, which is the only real positive—clean surface and no ripple. But the waves are very ordinary. The water temperature is 64°, which is a touch warmer than normal for the time of year.
The following week is a long stretch of poor conditions. Winds stay onshore or cross-onshore from the WSW and W, keeping the surface choppy and the waves small. The combined energy drops to near nothing on a few days. By the last days of the outlook, Monday the 21st and Tuesday the 22nd, the swell fades to 1 ft with very low energy.
If there’s one window worth mentioning, it’s Sunday the 12th afternoon at Faria—a beach and reef setup that’s fairly exposed to the SW direction. The glassy wind makes it the only time the surface will look clean. Expect crowds, especially if it’s the only game in town. It’s beginner-small stuff, so not one to get excited about.
This is a blank run for the area, and that’s not unusual. Forecasts can change, but for now, it’s quiet.

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.
