Description

This is the wind, wave and weather Superforecast for Opal Cliffs/Santa Cruz in California, United States. Windfinder specializes in wind, waves, tides and weather reports & forecasts for wind related sports like kitesurfing, windsurfing, surfing, sailing or paragliding.

The Superforecast is based on the newest versions of high resolution weather prediction models. The Superforecast is available for Europe, North America, South Africa, Egypt and the Canary Islands. The horizontal resolution is 5 kilometers. Forecasts are computed 4 times per day. Predictions are available in time steps of 1 hour for up to 3 days into the future. Forecast and Superforecast are based on different physical models and therefore may cause divergent predictions. Due to its higher horizontal resolution the Superforecast should be more accurate, especially for locations with a complex topography and local thermal effects. The arrows point in the direction that the wind is blowing.

Check the Superforecast for Opal Cliffs/Santa Cruz when you want to find the best last minute travel destination for your kiteboarding, windsurfing or sailing vacation in United States.

Units We use knots and degrees Celsius as our default units. These units are often used by sailors, kiters, surfers, windsurfers and paragliders. Use website settings to switch between units at any time. For converting between wind speed units such as knots, km/h (kilometers per hour), m/s (meters per second), and mph (miles per hour), you can use our wind speed calculator.
