The Lowdown
Alright crew, Rusty here. We’re looking at Darigayos for the next 16 days, and I’m not gonna sugarcoat it – it’s a rough go. There’s a big dry spell right at the start.
From the 6th all the way through to the 17th of August, it’s mostly flat or blown out. Cross-onshore winds and tiny, gutless swell mean you’re better off staying on the beach. That’s a solid 12-day gap with absolutely nothing to recommend.
Things finally creep back to life on Tuesday the 18th of August. A small WNW swell shows up, maybe 2 ft, but it’s weak, with only 54 (moderate) combined energy. The wind is cross-shore, which is a step up from onshore, but it’s still a moderate breeze making things a bit lumpy. The period is short, around 8 seconds, so the waves will be a bit soft. The water temp is about normal for this time of year.
The best we’re gonna get is Wednesday the 19th of August. The swell bumps up a little, to about 3 ft – 3 ft from the WNW, with moderate energy climbing to 129. The period stretches to 9 seconds, so it’s a little more formed. The wind is still a cross-shore breeze from the South at 15-16 mph, keeping it a bit choppy. It’s not a standout, but it’s the cleanest window we have. Darigayos is a consistent reef, so it’ll be breaking, but it’s still small. The 20th of August sees the swell drop back to almost nothing with a fresh, lumpy cross-shore wind finishing it off.
So, the whole 16-day window boils down to a couple of marginal days on the 18th and 19th. The 19th is the pick of a very poor lot. Keep your expectations real low, and if you do go, it’ll be a light paddle, not a proper session.
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.
