Table - best surf conditions forecast for Darigayos over the next 16 days.
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ over at Darigayos for the next couple of weeks.
Straight up, I’ve got to be honest with you – the next 16 days look pretty bleak for a proper surf at Darigayos. This is a reef break that’s exposed to the north, but the swell window just isn't lining up with the wind. We're looking at a long, drawn-out stretch of poor conditions, with only one day that even gets a marginal nod towards the end.
The first real chance of anything resembling a wave shows up on Saturday morning, July 11th. We've got a 3 ft swell from the north, with a period of 10 seconds. The energy is moderate (154), but the wind is a moderate cross-onshore from the SSW at 15 mph, so it's gonna be choppy. The combined energy jumps up to 224 in the afternoon with a 3 ft north swell, but that cross-shore wind just kills the shape. It's messy.
The next bit of swell arrives on Friday, July 17th in the morning. We’ve got a 2 ft swell from the WNW with a solid 13-second period. That long period groundswell has some push, with a combined energy of 170, but the wind is a strong cross-shore at 28 mph. That’s a full-on mess – strong cross-shore with a bad chop. Not worth paddling out for.
Then on Saturday, July 18th, the swell actually gets some size. The morning shows 6 ft from the WNW, period of 10 seconds, and a combined energy of 485 – that's moderate to strong. But again, the wind is a fresh cross-shore at 19 mph. That's a big, lumpy, choppy mess. It’s getting a bit too big for beginners at that size anyway, and with that wind, it's just ugly. In the arvo the swell drops to 4 ft, and the wind goes cross-onshore. It's all pretty average.
The only window that might be worth a look is Monday afternoon, July 20th. The wave comment finally says "marginal" instead of "poor". We've got a 3 ft swell from the WNW, 8-second period, and combined energy of 236. The wind is a gentle cross-shore at 9 mph. That’s the cleanest wind we’ve seen in the whole forecast. It’s a short period swell, so it won’t have much punch, and it’s just a marginal call, but if you’re desperate, that’s your best bet.
Beyond that, the rest of the forecast is filled with storms, strong winds, and zero swell. So, the standout here is the Monday, July 20th afternoon – it’s the only period where the wind is light enough to even think about it, and the swell is there. It’s not going to be epic, but it’s the only surfable moment in a very long, poor run.
Stay patient, and keep an eye on the charts. It can’t stay this bad forever.

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.
