Davenport Landing surf guide

Davenport Landing is a surf spot located along the stunning California coastline. It's a place that offers decent waves for surfers looking to catch some fun rides. The area features a lined-up left reef on the south end and a right at the north end of the cove, making it versatile for different preferences. The access is pretty straightforward if you know where to look, and while the surf can get crowded on weekends, you might find it more relaxed on weekday mornings.

The left wave on the south is best during south swells and often works well at mid to high tides, reaching sizes between waist high (about 1 meter) and overhead (up to 2.5 meters). You can also catch a mushy right on the north end, but it usually requires lower tides and a northwest swell that's bigger than chest high (about 1.5 meters). Crowds can vary, but most days you might find a laid-back vibe, with the local surfers keeping it chill. The preferable wind direction is from the northeast, which helps to groom the waves nicely.

When you head out, be aware of the rocks and the occasional shark sightings. The bottom is primarily rocky ledge, so make sure to keep that in mind when choosing your board. Both shortboards and funboards work well here, so bring what you feel comfortable on. Davenport Landing offers a solid surf experience year-round, with spring, summer, autumn, and winter providing various conditions to enjoy.

Welcome! If you’re new to surf forecasting, check out this quick guide.

Forecast Cheat Sheet

Short on time? Focus on wave energy. It’s the best single metric to gauge how big and powerful the waves will be.

Click any table cell to jump to that forecast hour. The map will update with forecast arrows, so you can see if wind and swell direction are lining up.

Use the table sidebar to switch units for height and speed.

Log your surf sessions to compare forecasts with real sessions and sharpen future predictions.

On the map, click a metric label to bring that arrow to the front — handy when arrows overlap.

Models and Updates

Surfnerd blends multiple global and local wind and swell models using advanced interpolation and spatial techniques to create an "ensemble" forecast. Forecasts are refreshed hourly.

Surf Predictions

Our AI-driven algorithm scores surf quality, shown by green, orange, and gray dots. Each forecast hour is rated for wind, swell, and tide quality, then combined into an overall score. Here’s the scale:

Perfect
Good
Average
Bad or No Data

Session logs also feed the algorithm — the more you log, the smarter your forecasts get.

With Surfnerd, no more "you should have been here yesterday"

Wind certainty

Wind certainty tells you how much the weather models agree on the forecast.

  • High certainty: Models agree closely; forecast is reliable.
  • Medium certainty: Some disagreement; conditions may shift slightly.
  • Low certainty: Models diverge; treat forecast with caution.

We calculate this by comparing wind speed, gust and direction from multiple models (like GFS, ECMWF, Arome, and Harmonie) and seeing how closely they match. They are weighted, meaning that some models count more than others, depending on how good they are for a certain spot.
