The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again. Let’s break it down in feet and miles per hour for the imperial crew.
Straight off the bat, Darigayos is lookin’ like a desert. From Thursday the 20th of August all the way through to early on Monday the 31st, there is no surf to speak of. More than a week of flatness, with thunderstorm risk and cross-breezes keepin’ the ocean locked down. Water temp is about 85°F, which is normal for the season.
Then, on Monday afternoon, the 31st of August, we finally get a pulse. A west swell rolls in at about 6ft, with a period of 11 seconds. The combined energy hits 646 – that’s a solid chunk of power for this reef. But here’s the sting: the wind is a fresh cross-shore out of the south at 18 mph, makin’ it lumpy and choppy. Not pretty. The swell direction is a bit off the optimum north swell for Darigayos, so it won’t wrap in as cleanly. This one’s for the experienced crew only – beginners should sit it out. The quality is poor despite the size.
Tuesday, the 1st of September, the swell drops to about 4ft from the west, period 9 seconds, energy at 237. Wind is still cross-shore from the south at 12 mph – manageable but still bumpy. By Tuesday afternoon, the wind turns clean cross-off from the SSE at 12 mph, but the swell is down to 3ft from the WNW, with energy dropping to 86. It’ll be clean but weak and small.
The only moment worth mentionin’ is that Monday afternoon on the 31st of August – it’s the biggest energy spike, but the wind ruins the party. For the rest, it’s mostly flat or messy. Honestly, with those strong south winds, this spot looks better suited for kite surfing than paddle surfing during the bigger wind days.
Rusty, out.

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.
