The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Let me tell you straight up – it’s a pretty grim stretch ahead for Darigayos. This reef set-up is a consistent spot that’s exposed to northerly swell, but the next week and a half is basically a write-off. There’s a massive gap from now all the way through to Sunday the 9th of August – nearly 12 days – with no surf worth paddling out for. The water’s sitting at a warm 87°, which is a touch warmer than usual for the time of year, but that won’t help when there’s nothing to ride.
We finally see something pop on Sunday the 9th morning, but don’t get your hopes up too much. An 8ft swell from the west, with a 10-second period, brings some moderate wave energy (1194). But the wind is a strong cross-onshore at 22 mph, making it fresh and lumpy. That kind of size is pushing into expert-only territory, and the messy wind means only the most experienced will make anything of it. The swell direction from the west is off the optimum north for Darigayos, so it won’t hold its shape well.
Monday the 11th afternoon offers a tiny glimmer: a 3ft west swell with a 10-second period, and the wind swings to 12 mph onshore – not terrible, but not clean. Energy is weak (154), and the break is inconsistent at that size. Not a standout by any stretch.
If you’re after the best on offer across the whole 16 days, it’s that Sunday the 9th morning. It’s the only window with any real swell size, but the wind kills it for paddle surfing. Honestly, with that strong cross-onshore wind and a beach-and-reef setup, this looks more interesting for kite surfing than a proper paddle session. The rest of the period is flat, choppy, or blown out. For a spot that’s usually consistent, this is a rare blank run – forecasts can change, but right now it’s a waiting game.
Rusty.

Information about the Darigayos Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Darigayos provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Darigayos can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Darigayos surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Darigayos) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Darigayos may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
