Surf Spots

 

Santa Barbara is the native county of many world class surfers. In winter, the low pressures in the North Pacific generate long period of groundswells that produce massive waves. In summer, low pressure system in the South Pacific produce even larger groundswells travelling 1000’s of miles to hit the coast of California.

 

The best breaks in Santa Barbara are either North of town beyond Point Conception or south of town in Ventura county. The area most famous breaks are Rincon, a world class left point break, and Jalama, a regional classic and very consistent left & right beach break. Good waves year round as the coast benefit from both the North and South Pacific groundswells.
