Alright, Rusty here. Let's talk surf.

First up, this is a tough stretch for Silver Strand. We're looking at a solid run of poor surf conditions with hardly anything to get excited about. The first day with any sort of swell that's worth considering doesn't roll around until Wednesday, July 8th, and even then it's marginal. It's going to be a quiet couple of weeks.

The standout period, if you can call it that, is around Wednesday and Thursday, July 8th and 9th. The combined energy of all swells directed here is starting to build, hitting a moderate 289 on Wednesday morning and 292 on Thursday morning. We're seeing a small, long-period groundswell from the SSW with a period of 16 seconds, which gives the waves a bit of shape and energy, but they'll be small – around 2ft. The problem is the wind. It's onshore from the west, so those small waves are going to get chopped up, keeping the surf quality poor. It’s a frustrating tease.

After that, the energy drops back down. By the time we get to July 15th, the combined energy plummets to a weak 53 and waves are tiny. The second week of the outlook is pretty much a write-off. There's a small uptick in energy on July 18th, but again with onshore winds and a weak 224 combined energy, it's nothing special.

Honestly, for the entire 16-day window, there's no true standout. The best bet is to keep an eye on the early mornings of July 8th and 9th when the wind is lightest. But with consistent onshore flow and small, weak swell, this stretch looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. The water temp is about average for this time of year, nothing unusual there.

Stay patient.

Information about the Silver Strand Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for Silver Strand provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Silver Strand can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Silver Strand 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 (Silver Strand) 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 Silver Strand 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.

Silver Strand is 3 km (2 miles) from the city of Port Hueneme. If you plan a vacation in Ventura County, look for hotels and other accommodation in Port Hueneme. Port Hueneme has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
