Table - best surf conditions forecast for Dogmans (Rincon) over the next 16 days.
Right then, I’m looking at the full 16-day window for Dogmans (Rincon), and I’ve got to be straight with you—it’s a tough stretch. The forecast is basically a flat spell with next to no energy. The combined energy of all swells directed here barely registers, hitting a max of 16 (weak) and mostly sitting at zero. The water temp is sitting at 84°, which is a touch above average for this time of year, nothing wild.
Wednesday the 8th through to the end of the window on Thursday the 23rd, there’s just nothing doing. We’re talking day after day of “poor surf conditions” with swell heights that never even reach 1ft. The wind is often offshore or cross-offshore, which would be great if there was any swell, but there isn’t. A few mornings like Saturday the 11th and Monday the 20th have glassy conditions, and the 21st is totally calm and glassy, but it’s all wasted on a flat ocean.
The best—and I mean the only real standout here—is a very brief window on Saturday afternoon the 11th. A tiny 0.3ft swell from the north at 13 seconds, with a gentle offshore breeze. That’s a long-period pulse, but at that height, it’s barely a ripple. It’s the most promising moment in the whole run, but it’s still a marginal call. The rest of the period is a write-off.
For a reef break that’s fairly consistent and fairly exposed, this is a proper flat spell. It’s not unusual for this area to have blank runs, but it’s a bummer. The setup looks more like a day for a longboard or a paddle than a surf session. If you’re desperate, the 11th afternoon is your only shot, but keep expectations low.
