The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's be straight with you – this outlook for Darigayos is a tough one. We've got a solid 16-day window, but for the first few days, there's just nothing doing. From the 18th right through to the 21st, it's all zeros and "poor surf conditions." The wind is howling from the south at 15 to 19 mph, mostly cross-shore, making a mess of things. You're better off staying home.
We finally see a blip of life on the morning of Saturday, the 22nd of August. A west swell of 6 ft rolls in with a 10-second period, generating moderate wave energy (656). The catch? It's still blowing cross-shore from the south at 16 mph, so it's a marginal call at best. The water temp is sitting at a warm 85°F, which is about average for this time of year. This is the only real standout, if you can call it that, and it's more for experienced surfers who can handle the chop. Beginners should give it a miss.
After that Saturday morning tease, it's back to the doldrums. From the 23rd of August right through to the 2nd of September, we're looking at a long, dry spell. Small, weak swells pop up here and there, like a 2 ft south swell on the 23rd, but the energy is pitiful (6) and the wind is still onshore or cross. Honestly, with the persistent wind and tiny waves, this setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. There are no real recommendations to be had. It's one of those periods where a blank run is just normal for this area. Keep your eyes on the forecast, because it tends not to stay this poor for long.
Rusty, signing off.

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.
