The Lowdown
Alright, let’s get into it.
Honestly, the next couple of weeks are looking pretty grim for Darigayos. We’ve got a decent start, a little bump of energy, but it fades fast and then just dies out completely. If you’re keen, your window is really just the first couple of days, and even then, it’s not going to be anything to write home about.
The swell kicks off on Wednesday afternoon, the 16th. We’re looking at a small 2ft of north swell with a short 7-second period. The combined swell energy is weak at 48, and with a risk of thunderstorms and a light cross-shore breeze, it’s not going to be clean. It’s pretty poor, to be honest.
Thursday morning the 17th sees a touch more size, 3ft from the north, but the period is still short at 7 seconds, and it’s cross-on, so it’s not great. The energy bumps up slightly to 87, still weak, but the wind is messing with it. Then Thursday afternoon is your best bet early on. The wind goes glassy, light from the northwest at 5 km/h, the swell drops to 3ft, and the period ticks up to 8 seconds. It’s surfable, but just barely. The energy is moderate at 74, but it’s still very ordinary.
After that, it’s a slow slide downhill. Friday the 18th drops to 2ft, and the wind is onshore in the morning. Saturday and Sunday are below 2ft, with short periods and onshore or cross-on winds. Not worth getting wet.
There’s a real gap starting from around the 21st. The swell is tiny, 2ft and under, and the period is in the 6-7 second range, which means no real push. The energy is weak, dropping into the teens and single digits. By the 24th, we’re down to 1ft, and from the 26th onwards, the swell completely flatlines, with zero energy recorded. The water temp sits at 84°, which is pretty much average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
Look, if you’re desperate, Thursday afternoon is the only window with a clean-ish surface, but don’t expect much. The direction is north, and that’s the optimum for this reef, but the size and period just aren’t there. The crowds might not be an issue because, honestly, there’s barely a wave to ride. This is a period for surfboard maintenance or checking the sand, not for paddling out. For the next two weeks, Darigayos is looking like a flat, wind-affected mess. It’s not going to happen.
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.
