Alright, Rusty here again, givin’ it to you in feet and Fahrenheit.
Honestly, the next two weeks at Faria are a tough stretch. The surf is mostly flat and blown out. You’ve got a long stretch of days with nothing worthwhile – the swell is tiny, the wind is onshore or cross-shore, and the wave energy is low, all under 500 (moderate at best). The water temp is about 65°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year – feels nice on the skin, but the waves are just not showin’ up.
The only real highlight comes late in the outlook. Sunday, July 19th in the afternoon, the wind goes glassy, dead calm, and we get a 3ft swell from the S. That’s a long-period groundswell at 16 seconds, so it’ll have some shape and push, especially for a beach-and-reef setup like Faria. The combined energy hits 603 (moderate), the best of the whole run. That glassy wind is the key – it’ll be clean and smooth. The rest of the week after that? Still marginal, with the wind turning back onshore.
So, the one and only call is Sunday afternoon, July 19th at Faria. Clean, glassy, and a little bit of life. It’s small, but it’s the only game in town. Crowds are *sometimes* a factor here, so on a clean Sunday like that, expect some company. For the rest of the outlook? Long, flat, and forgettable.
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.
