The Lowdown
Alright, let’s size this up for Darigayos over the 16 days. It’s a reef break, usually exposed to the north, but this stretch is looking grim. Water temps are about normal for the season.
We’ve got a big, empty gap at the start. From Tuesday the 25th of August straight through to the 1st of September, it’s just a dead zone. Stormy weather, cross-shore winds, and waves are either flat or knee-high at best. Combined wave energy is tiny—mostly 0, with a high of just 15 on Friday the 28th afternoon. Not worth getting wet.
Wednesday the 2nd of September shows a little pulse. Morning brings a 2ft swell from the west, 10-second period, energy of 52. But the cross-shore wind keeps it choppy. By afternoon, it’s 2ft from the west, period down to 9 seconds, energy up to 81. Still, the conditions are poor. That theme continues through the rest of the week.
Your best shot in this whole outlook is Saturday the 5th of September. In the afternoon, we get a 5ft swell from the west-northwest, 9-second period, and a solid 393 units of energy. The wind is a gentle cross-shore, only a slight chop. But even then, it’s still tagged as poor surf. The swell direction is close to the ideal northerly for the reef, but the wind just isn’t clean enough.
Sunday the 6th of September also has some size—5ft from the northwest in the morning (energy of 440) and 4ft in the afternoon. But the wind cranks up to a fresh breeze from the south-southwest, making for a lumpy, crumbly cross-chop. Not the fun kind of lumpy.
There’s a brief moment on Tuesday the 8th of September in the afternoon when the wind turns glassy—almost dead calm. But the swell is only 1ft from the northwest with a 6-second period and just 6 units of energy. It’s a pond, not a surf break.
So, no true standouts here. The afternoon of the 5th of September is the closest to a go, but it’s a stretch. Everything else is either too small, too windy, or both. If you’re a kitesurfer, the days with strong cross-shore wind and a bit of bump might look interesting, but for a paddle surfer, this is a waiting game.

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.
