The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what Faria’s got cooking for the next couple of weeks. Straight up, I gotta be honest with you – the start of this run is a real slow burner. We’re looking at a long gap with hardly anything worth paddling out for until we get to the first real glimmer of hope.

The first few days are a write-off. Tuesday the 1st through to the end of Saturday the 5th? Leave the board in the car. We’ve got tiny swell – maybe 1ft to 3ft – and it’s coming from the SW, which is the right direction for Faria (a beach and reef setup), but the winds are trash. Mostly cross-on or onshore, making it choppy and unrideable. The combined wave energy is weak, barely hitting 100 to 356. Not much to get excited about.

Then, on Sunday the 6th of September, we finally see a pulse. The swell bumps up to 3ft from the S, with a period of 14 seconds – that’s got some decent groundswell grunt to it. The real kicker is the wind: it’s glassy in the morning. That’s a major positive, meaning it’ll be clean. The combined energy climbs to 438, which is a solid moderate energy. Monday the 7th looks even better. The swell builds to 4ft from the S, still that long 14-second period, and the morning is dead calm – glassy conditions again. Combined energy jumps up to 702, a nice strong push. This is your standout moment. The waves will have decent shape and power, but that long period can make it break a little straight on the beach. Still, for this spot, the wind and swell combo on Monday morning is the best on offer.

After that, things drop off again. Tuesday the 8th sees the swell back down to 3ft with a shorter 11-second period and a cross-shore wind, which messes with the lineup. From Wednesday the 9th onward, we’re back into the doldrums with tiny 1ft to 2ft surf for the rest of the forecast window. The energy drops back to under 200 and the winds are mostly onshore or light. Not worth chasing.

So, the only real play here is the Sunday 6th morning and the Monday 7th morning. Monday morning is the clear standout – 4ft S swell, glassy, good energy. Mark that in your calendar. The rest is a long, flat spell with no good options. It’s a bit of a blank run for Faria, which isn’t unusual when the consistency is only "fairly consistent" to begin with. Forecasts can change, but for now, that’s the story.

Stay stoked,
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.
