The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Well, I've had a proper look at the charts for our area and I gotta be straight with you – it’s a tough stretch ahead. We’re looking at a real quiet period for the next two weeks, so don't get your hopes up for anything epic.
The first recommendation doesn’t kick in until the 1st of September, which is a solid two weeks away. That leaves a big, flat gap from now right through the end of August. Most of that time it's just wind swell and messy cross-shore breezes, nothing worth getting wet for. It’s going to be a long wait.
When we finally get a pulse around Tuesday morning the 1st of September, it’s not the cleanest setup. The only spot with any real swell is Darigayos, a reef break. The swell jumps to 4 ft from the north, period around 9 seconds – that’s a bit of a short-period wind swell, not the groundswell we’d hope for, and the combined energy is a moderate 264 units. The wind is cross from the south at 16 mph, so it’ll be lumpy and a bit of a mess. It's not ideal for beginners as it's over 5 ft for the experts either, just a scrappy intermediate wave. The water temp is about average for this time of year, nothing unusual there.
Later that afternoon, the wind swings cross-offshore from the SSE at 12 mph which cleans it right up, but the swell drops way off to 2 ft. So it’s pretty small, but if you’re desperate for a slide on a clean face, that might be your only chance. That clean glassy window is the major positive, but it comes at the cost of size.
After that, the first week of September just fades away again with small, weak swells and onshore winds. The best of the rest is Wednesday the 2nd of September. Morning sees 3 ft from the NNW (period 8 seconds) and a combined energy of 149. Winds are cross-shore from the SSW at 12 mph, so it's not clean, but at least there’s a little push. It’s still a pretty average session.
So, the only real standout is the 1st of September, Tuesday morning at Darigayos, if you can handle the bumpy conditions for that bit of size. The afternoon is smaller but much cleaner. That’s as good as it gets.
Keep your eyes open for a change in the forecast, but right now it’s a long, quiet wait. This is 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.
