The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty again. Let’s boil that down for you.
For Faria over the next 16 days, we’ve got a dry spell that’s nearly two weeks long. From September 14th to the 24th, it’s all small, weak, and blown out. The water’s running 71° – way warmer than you’d expect for this time of year.
The only real flicker of hope is around September 20th to 22nd. Swell bumps up to about 2ft from the SW, but the period is over 17 seconds, so it’s deep ocean groundswell. That long period means better shape but bigger gaps between sets – ideal for a reef setup like Faria. The combined energy hits 286 (moderate) on the 20th morning. Light offshore wind on the 22nd morning (coming from the SW at 3 mph) could make it glassy and clean for the few waves that roll through.
There’s no standout session. The morning of the 20th is the closest you’ll get to something decent. The rest is a write-off.
Stay patient,
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.
