The Lowdown
Hey, Rusty here again. Let’s break it down for you in feet and miles. Darigayos is a reef break that usually needs a northerly push, but the next 16 days are a total bust. You’ve got a massive dry spell from now until late on the 22nd of August – that’s over a week of flat, nothing happening. Then, from the 22nd afternoon through the morning of the 25th, we get a few tiny bumps, but they’re ugly.
The only real highlight, and I’m using that word loosely, is the morning of Monday the 24th of August. You’ll see a small 2ft swell from the WNW with a short 8-second period, combined energy at 72 – weak. Wind is cross-onshore from the SSW at about 9 mph, so it’s choppy. The break is consistent, and crowds are only “sometimes,” so you might have it to yourself. That’s your best shot, and it’s a poor one. Water temp is around 85°, which is pretty average for this time of year.
Before that, on Saturday the 22nd afternoon and Sunday the 23rd, you get 1ft from the WNW, same short period, energy as low as 17-28, with cross-shore wind adding lumps. After the 25th morning, it flatlines again, just a tiny 2ft windswell from the south on the 27th morning with a 3-second period – total dud, energy 5. Honestly, with all the cross-shore wind and zero quality, this setup is more interesting for kite surfing than paddling. Don’t get your hopes up.
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.
