Darigayos Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, Rusty here. Let’s talk about what’s shaping up for Darigayos.

Honestly, the next week and a half is looking pretty flat and messy for Darigayos. We’ve got a long stretch of poor surf, with hardly anything to get excited about until the end of the second week. The water temp is sitting at 84°, which is pretty much normal for this time of year, so no surprises there.

The first real chance of anything decent doesn’t roll in until Friday the 11th. On Friday morning, we’ll see a 4ft swell from the north, with a period of 9 seconds and moderate wave energy (292). The wind is onshore, so it’s rough. But then Friday afternoon, things get interesting. The wind goes glassy, and the swell holds at 5ft from the north, with a period of 10 seconds and energy jumping to 356. That’s the first window where you might actually want to paddle out. It’s not huge, but that glassy wind will make it clean.

The best of the whole forecast window is Saturday the 12th, morning session. The swell picks up to 5ft from the north, period 10 seconds, and the energy is strong at 513. The wind is cross-offshore from the SSE at 9 mph, keeping the surface clean. That’s the standout. Darigayos is a consistent reef break, and it’s exposed to the north, so this swell direction is right on the money. It’s not too big for intermediates, but it’s got enough push to be fun. Just keep in mind, crowds are possible here.

After that, it drops off fast. Sunday the 13th through to the end of the period, we’re back to small, weak, and mostly cross-onshore slop. There’s a little blip on Monday the 21st with a glassy afternoon and a 3ft north swell, but the energy is only 102 and the period is 9 seconds – it’s surfable but nothing to write home about.

So, bottom line: if you’ve got a window, make it Saturday morning the 12th. That’s the one. The rest is mostly a waiting game.

Rusty.
