The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's take a look at what's happening for Darigayos over the next couple of weeks. Straight up, I gotta be honest with you – it’s looking pretty grim. There’s really nothing worth getting excited about. The whole 16-day stretch is a big old flat spell with only tiny, weak waves and none of them are any good for a proper surf. We’re talking about a run of poor surf conditions from start to finish.
The good news? There is absolutely no stand-out option to report, so you’re not missing a thing. The water temp is sitting about average for the time of year at 84°F, so at least you won't freeze if you go for a swim.
We kick off Saturday the 12th of September with a tiny 3ft north swell. The period is a short 9 seconds and the combined wave energy is weak (94). Winds are light and offshore from the west in the afternoon, but it’s not enough to save it. The report says it’s "poor surf conditions" and I reckon that sums it up. Sunday the 13th is even smaller, 2ft from the north, and the wind swings cross-shore, just messing up what little is there.
The rest of the first week stays tiny, with most days seeing 2ft to 2ft max from the north or NNW, with periods as low as 6 seconds. That’s pure windswell junk, no power behind it. The combined energy readings are all well under 100 – a lot of the time it’s just a flicker. Every single session is tagged "poor surf conditions" with a score of zero for the whole period. There’s a moment on Sunday the 20th of September in the afternoon where the wind goes glassy, but the swell is a pathetic 2ft with a 6-second period. Not worth paddling out for.
Into the second week, it only gets worse. From Monday the 21st to the end of the month, the swell drops further – 2ft, then 1ft, then 1ft, and finally to zero on the last two days (the 27th). The energy levels drop to single digits and then nothing. All reports remain "poor surf conditions" with zero recommendations.
So yeah, this is a total blank run. I’ve seen these quiet spells before around here – the ocean just shuts down for a bit. It won’t stay this way forever, forecasts can change, but right now, you’re better off doing something else.
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.
