The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s break this down for Darigayos. The next couple of weeks are looking pretty grim, so don’t rush to wax your board just yet.
The first few days are a total bust. From Monday the 20th through Thursday the 23rd of July, it’s all poor surf conditions. The water is sitting at 86°F, which is a bit warmer than usual for this time of year, but that doesn’t help when there’s no swell. The energy is flat zero. The wind is messy, with cross-onshore breezes and thunderstorms messing up the surface.
We finally get a tiny pulse on Friday the 24th of July. A 0.7ft northerly swell with a short, weak 5-second period shows up, and the combined energy is a pathetic 2. The wind is onshore from the west, so it’s not worth paddling out.
Saturday the 25th and Sunday the 26th see a little more size, but it’s still poor. The swell climbs to 2ft to 2ft from the NNW, but the period is short (4-5 seconds) and the energy is weak (21 to 30). By Sunday, the wind is howling at 25 mph from the west, making it a choppy, blown-out mess. That’s more for the kite surfers than anyone.
The only real window of opportunity is Monday the 27th of July. The swell pushes to 3ft from the NW, with a 6-second period and energy up to 60. The wind is a moderate cross-shore from the south, but by Monday afternoon, it turns clean cross-offshore from the SSE. For a reef break like Darigayos, that clean wind will make the small waves look a bit better. It’s still not good, but it’s the best of a bad bunch.
After that, it’s back to flat and lifeless. By the 31st of July, we’ve got glassy conditions but zero swell. There’s a tiny flicker on Tuesday the 4th of August with a 2ft WNW swell and a 7-second period, but the wind is fresh and lumpy, so it’s gonna be choppy.
There’s no standout here. Keep an eye on the afternoon of the 27th, but don’t hold your breath. For a spot that’s usually consistent, this is a real dry spell. Forecasts can change, but right now, it’s a quiet one.
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.
