Santa Barbara Area Surf Report

March Overview | 1997 Overview


Date/Time:
Monday, March 24th, 9:00 am - 11:30 am
Location:
C Street
Weather:
Gloomy and overcast, building side-onshores.
Conditions:
Fair, peaky and mushy with building wind bump.
Swell:
Fun longboardable two-way peaks, waist high to head high.
Comments:
Fun summer-like high tide peaks running across the point. Mostly slowly fading shoulders with slowly forming sections that burbled upward down the line, makeable and fun on a longboard.

Every so often a head high set would loom up out of the haze and gloom, coming in steep -- well, relatively steep; C Street isn't the Pipeline -- and running fast from the outfall pipe to the stairs.
