The Lowdown
G'day, Rusty here, and I'm not gonna sugarcoat it – the next sixteen days at Darigayos look like a write-off. We've got a long stretch of nothing worth paddling out for, so if you're itching for a wave, you might be better off staying home and waxing your board for another day.
Looking at the whole picture, it's a grim run. From Wednesday the 26th of August right through to Thursday the 10th of September, every single session is rated as poor surf conditions. That's a solid two-week gap with no real surf on offer. The wind is just about always cross or cross-onshore, often blowing fresh to strong, and the wave heights are barely a whisper. Most days the swell height is a flat "-" or a tiny 0.3ft to 0.7ft, with very weak combined swell energy – you're looking at values like 0, 2, or 3 in brackets, which is just about nothing. The only bit of energy that pops up is on the 1st of September afternoon, with a 3ft swell from the WNW and a combined energy of (94), but the wind is still cross-onshore and the period is a short 9 seconds, so it's messy and weak.
There's not a single standout in this whole forecast. The swell is too small, the wind is almost always wrong, and the break is a reef that's consistent but exposed. With the wind we've got, it's just not going to clean up. For a few afternoons, like the 3rd of September afternoon and the 6th of September, we get a brief "clean" wind state with cross-off breezes, but the swell is still only 0.7ft to 1ft. It's not enough to ride. The 7th of September Monday afternoon even goes glassy, with a 1ft swell from the NNW and a period of 7 seconds, but the energy is only (20) – you'd be lucky to get a ripple.
There's just no good surf options in this 16-day window. For a spot that's usually consistent, this is a real dud. Forecasts can change, but right now, I'd say save your energy and wait for the next system.
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.
