Santa Barbara Surf Forecast – Weekend Waves – More windswell
The Swell
Steeply angled WNW-NW windswell will build into Santa Barbara on Saturday and then fade out slowly on Sunday.
Waves
Mostly small surf will be on tap over the weekend…look for some knee high or smaller waves at the average spots on Saturday along with some sloppy conditions as NW winds continue to push through the area. Top spots will be bigger, more in the knee-waist high+ range, but will likely be junkier thanks to more wind exposure.
Sunday the wave heights stay the same through the morning (but may mush out thanks to the early morning 6.5’ high tide)…conditions will be cleaner. Fading surf and switching onshore winds will be on tap through the afternoon.
Winds
Saturday look for NW winds 10-15 knots for the morning and NW winds 10-20+ knots on tap for the afternoon. Sunday will start off cleaner with variable N winds around 10-15 knots but the NW flow 10-15+ knots will return by the afternoon.
