The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the menu for our little corner of the world.
Honestly, it’s a rough start. We’re looking at a solid week of nothing, nada, zip. From Wednesday the 2nd right through to the end of the following week, it’s a write-off. The wind is a mess – cross-shore and cross-onshore, mostly from the SSW and pretty breezy at times, up to 22 mph. That'll chop up any tiny bumps before they even get a chance. We’ve got a couple of days with zero energy in the water, and the rest is just weak little windswell with periods around 7 or 8 seconds. Not worth paddling out for.
The first real glimmer of hope doesn’t show up until Saturday the 12th of September. Now we’re talking. The swell kicks up just a touch, and the wind drops right off. For the Saturday morning session, we’re looking at a clean, glassy surface at Darigayos. The waves will be around 3 ft, coming from the North with a period of 9 seconds. The combined energy is moderate at 145, so it’s not a powerhouse, but after a week of nothing, that glassy surface is a godsend. The water temp is 84°, which is about normal for this time of year.
Saturday afternoon holds up too, with the swell nudging to 4 ft from the North, and the energy picking up to 177. Still glassy. This is easily the standout window. The Sunday on the 13th September is also worth a mention. The morning will see some light cross-offshore wind, keeping it clean, with 4 ft north swell. The afternoon brings a nice offshore breeze from the East, same size waves. It’s not groundswell, the period is only 8 seconds, but for clean, fun-sized waves at a consistent reef, you can’t complain.
We lose the wind again on Monday the 14th, with moderate breezes, but there’s still some swell in the water through the afternoon, around 4 ft from the North (energy at 246). It’ll be a bit lumpy in the morning, but the afternoon might clean up a little. After that, it fades back into mediocrity for the rest of the run.
So, to put it simply: the first week is a dead loss. The weekend of the 12th and 13th September is where it’s at – the only real highlight, with clean conditions and rideable north swell at Darigayos. If you can wait, that’s the call. The long-range stuff looks less certain, but for now, that Saturday glass-off is the one.
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.
Darigayos is 23 km (14 miles) from San Fernando. If you plan a holiday in West Luzon, look for hotels and other accommodation in San Fernando. San Fernando has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
