Santa Barbara Area Surf Reports

Just to get wet, drove up to Goleta, walked out to Sands, walked down past Stu's and past the rock in front of the Snowy Plovers, and paddled out into the water as West as I could get. Waves were 2-3 times better than the waves at the Mesa which I checked before the hoof West. Which means sometimes a waist high wave came in. Some fun long rides on the Fish, all the way to the shallows that were getting shallower as the tide dropped. Hardest part was watching for sets, the wintertime mid-day sun having dropped so low to make one need polarized sunglasses out there.

Surfed over to Stu's, and caught a couple of waves in the pack. Nothing much going on.
