Santa Barbara Area Surf Report

September Overview | 1996 Overview


Date/Time:
Sunday, September 1st, 12:00 noon - 3:30 pm
Location:
Arroyo Sequit
Weather:
Sunny and warm, eerie fog banks to the north.
Conditions:
Sheet glass with just a touch of developing sideshores.
Swell:
Crappy knee to waist high with sporadic chest high sets.
Comments:
Much smaller than had hoped for... where's that overhyped S. hemi we were supposed to get?

A lot of time sitting and waiting, talking with the crowd, going off on a couple of kook divers who decided to spearfish directly under us and shoot all the undersized, immature fish they could find. Landed a couple of good, clean floaters.
