Beach Hazards Statement issued June 15 at 7:21PM PDT until June 18 at 3:00AM PDT by NWS Los Angeles/Oxnard CA

Effective: Mon June 15, 2026, 7:21 PM
Expires: Tue June 16, 2026, 9:30 AM

* WHAT...Dangerous rip currents and breaking waves due to elevated surf of 3 to 6 feet on south-facing beaches, as well as minor coastal flooding near times of high tide. * WHERE...Ventura County Beaches. * WHEN...Through late Wednesday night. * IMPACTS...There is an increased risk of ocean drowning. Rip currents can pull swimmers and surfers out to sea. Waves can wash people off beaches and rocks, and capsize small boats nearshore. Minor coastal flooding are possible in low-lying areas near the times of high tides. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Coastal flooding concerns will peak from from around 8 PM through midnight tonight and Tuesday night, due to high astronomical tides of 7.2 ft to 7.7 ft.

Remain out of the water due to hazardous swimming conditions, or stay near occupied lifeguard towers. Rock jetties can be deadly in such conditions, stay off the rocks.

The times presented here are based upon the solunar theory, which is the idea that the movements of fish and other animals are affected by the location of the sun and moon. The major periods are believed to be the times of the greatest animal activity and occur when the moon is directly overhead or underfoot (lunar transits). The minor periods also see increased activity and occur when the moon is rising or setting. The strongest activity occurs during full or new moons, and the weakest during quarter or three quarter moons. This is indicated by the Action Rating.
