The Lowdown
Alright, my fellow wave hunters, Rusty here with the straight dope. The 16-day outlook for Darigayos (Philippines) is a rough one. We’re staring down a long, flat spell with nothing but small, choppy windswell and persistent onshore winds that are going to make you work for nothing.
The water is sitting at 87°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so you’ll be sweating in your boardshorts, not shivering.
The first few days are a total write-off. From Wednesday the 15th through to Tuesday the 22nd of July, we’re looking at zero combined swell energy – just a big, flat, lumpy mess. The wind is blowing from the southwest at 15 to 25 km/h, just tearing the surface up. It’s a real bummer, honestly.
We finally get a tiny pulse on Wednesday the 22nd afternoon, but it’s barely a ripple. A 0.4m (1ft) swell from the west-northwest with a period of 7 seconds, and the combined energy is a weak 17. It’s onshore, messy, and the only thing happening is a light breeze from the west at 10 km/h. That’s not a surf – that’s a visual sigh.
The rest of the week into the end of the month is more of the same. The 23rd and 24th offer tiny 0.3m (1ft) waves from the west-northwest with periods of 6 to 7 seconds, but the energy is pitiful (single digits), and the wind is still cross-onshore. It’s a poor quality, wind-affected slop that’s barely worth getting your board wet for.
From the 25th through to the 30th, it’s back to zero combined energy, with the wind picking up again, especially on the 30th with a fresh breeze from the south-southwest at 30 km/h. There’s a tiny 0.3m (1ft), 3-second windswell on the 30th afternoon, but it’s a joke – combined energy of just 2.
The honest truth? There is no standout. There is no best day. This is a two-week stretch where the ocean is basically saying "not today." If you were hoping for a surf trip, you’d be better off looking for a kite session if you’re into that, because the wind is constant, but for a paddle surfer? It’s a dry spell. Don’t throw your board in the truck for this one. Forecasts can change, but right now, it’s looking grim.
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.
