The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's take a look at what we've got on the table for Darigayos. I gotta be straight with you—this is a tough run. Looking at the entire 16-day window, we’re staring down the barrel of a long, quiet spell. The first real pulse of surfable energy doesn’t show up until nearly the very end, so we’ve got a lot of flat, poor conditions to get through before anything worthwhile happens.
From Monday, September 14 right through to Saturday, September 27, it’s pretty grim. The surf is tiny, mostly between 0.7 ft and 3 ft, with short periods of 5-7 seconds. The combined swell energy is weak, barely scratching past 50 for most of it. Winds are a mixed bag of light cross-onshore and onshore, with only a few brief glassy windows on the 14th and 15th. But even then, the waves are too small and weak to get excited about. The water temp is sitting at 84°, which is pretty normal for the time of year, so at least the water’s warm for those long waits.
Now, things finally try to turn around on Sunday, September 29. We get a pulse of NNW swell pushing 4 ft in the morning, with a period of 10 seconds and a combined energy of 316. That’s moderate energy, finally. By the afternoon, it pushes up to 5 ft and a combined energy of 523. This is the biggest we see in the whole window. Winds stay light cross-onshore, which isn't ideal but won't wreck it completely. The rating for that afternoon slot is a 2, which is the best we get, but it’s still described as “marginal.” This is the only real standout in the whole forecast, and it's over two weeks away, so treat it as a promising but uncertain option.
If you’re an intermediate surfer willing to wait, the afternoon of September 29 could offer some clean, 5 ft waves from the NNW at Darigayos. Just be aware, the crowd profile says it’s “sometimes” busy here, so you might have some company. For the rest of us, this is a stretch of time better spent on other plans. The setup with small swell and consistent light wind during those early days might actually look better for kite surfing than paddle surfing.
Stay patient, and check back closer to that last weekend.
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.
