The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s look at what we’ve got.
It’s a rough run, no two ways about it. Darigayos (reef) is the only spot in the mix, and the surf is flat for nearly the whole 16 days. The first couple of days have a little bit of swell, but it’s messy and the wind is all wrong. The water is 87°F, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year.
Starting Sunday, 26 July, we see a tiny 2ft NW swell, but it’s got a short 9-10 second period and a cross breeze. The combined energy is weak (121) and the conditions are just poor. By Monday, 27 July, the swell drops to 1ft with an even shorter period of 8 seconds, and energy is almost nothing (18). Tuesday, 28 July, is a total flop – 0.7ft, 6 second period, nearly no energy (4 and 3). The Tuesday afternoon goes glassy, but with that tiny swell, it’s not worth getting wet.
From Wednesday, 29 July, all the way to Monday, 10 August, the swell is gone. Zeroes across the board. The wind is mostly cross-shore or cross-onshore, with a few clean moments, but there are no waves to ride. That’s a blank run of more than a week, and it’s pretty typical for this area when the swell is absent.
The only standout, if you can call it that, is the Sunday morning, 26 July, when there’s a tiny 2ft NW swell at Darigayos. But with the cross wind and risk of thunderstorms, it’s a mess. The reef might hold a little shape, but the conditions are poor. This is more of a kite surfing setup than a paddle surfing one. The water is a touch warmer than average, but that’s about it.
No good surf options in the 16-day window. Forecasts can change, but for now, leave the board at home.
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.
