The Lowdown
Alright, I’m just gonna run through it in feet now. This is Rusty.
Honestly, we’re looking at a pretty quiet stretch ahead for Darigayos. The energy in the water is mostly weak this whole run – we’re talking combined energy numbers from 10 up to 99 for the most part, nothing that’s gonna get your heart racing. The water temperature is sitting right around average for this time of year around here, nothing out of the ordinary.
The first real chance to get wet comes on Saturday the 12th of September. Before that, from Thursday the 10th through Friday the 11th, we’re dealing with tiny surf – around 1 ft to 3 ft – and mostly poor conditions with onshore or cross-shore winds. The best moment is Saturday afternoon. Swell picks up to 3 ft out of the north, period around 9 seconds, with combined energy hitting 99. The kicker here is the wind – glassy conditions with a light SW breeze at 5 km/h. That’s rare in this window, and for a consistent reef like this with an optimum north swell direction, that’s the sweet spot to aim for. Just know it can get a bit of a local crew out there sometimes.
After that, things go flat. Sunday the 13th onward, we’re back to 1 ft to 2 ft of slop, onshore and cross-on winds, and the energy drops right off into the single digits. The 14th all the way through the 25th of September is basically a write-off – you’re looking at tiny waves, cross-chop, and nothing that’s worth a paddle. No big groundswell build, no long-period signature coming through.
Your only real shot in this whole 16-day run is that Saturday afternoon. It’s not a banger, but if you need to get salty and the conditions line up, it’s your window. Don’t get your hopes up too high beyond that.
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.
