The Lowdown
G’day, it’s Rusty here. Look, I’ve got to be straight with you – the next 16 days at Darigayos are a write-off. There’s nothing on the cards that’s worth paddling out for. The whole stretch from Thursday, August 27th right through to Friday, September 11th is a long, dusty blank run. The guides are showing zero swell energy for most of that, and when a tiny bump does show, it’s all blown out or messy cross-shore winds. The water’s sitting at 84°, which is pretty normal for this time of year – no surprises there.
The only day that even gets close to a pulse is Thursday, September 3rd in the morning, with a weak 3 ft swell from the north, a period of 9 seconds, and combined energy of just 215. That’s your best bet, but it’s still a poor surf situation with cross-onshore winds out of the SSW at 6 mph, so it’ll be choppy and ugly. The afternoon drops to 2 ft from the north with a shorter period, and the energy falls off to 86. Honestly, this setup is more suited to kite surfing than a proper surf.
If you’re desperate, the glassy conditions on Friday afternoon, September 4th, are a tease – the swell is only 0.7 ft, so it’s flat as a tack. The rest of the forecast is a mix of thunderstorms, rain, and fresh breeze that’ll keep the ocean lumpy. No standouts, no hidden gems. This area sometimes goes quiet, and this is one of those stretches. Forecasts can shift, but right now, leave the board at home.

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.
