The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the menu for the next couple of weeks at Domes.
We're looking at a pretty quiet stretch overall. The swell energy is low for the vast majority of the forecast, with most days showing combined energy in the double digits, which is weak. There's no real punchy swell on the horizon, so we're scraping together small, clean windows where we can get them.
The best bet of the whole period looks like Saturday morning, August 29th, at Domes. We've got a tiny 1ft groundswell from the NE with a period of 11 seconds, and the wind is glassy out of the west. The combined energy is only 68, so it's weak, but with those conditions it'll be rideable for beginners. It's not going to blow anyone's mind, but it's the cleanest we'll see.
After that, the next decent window is Monday morning, August 31st. We've got a 2ft NE swell with a 9-second period, and the wind goes offshore out of the SE at 9 mph. The combined energy is 88, still weak, but it'll be clean. It's a small, workable morning for a longboard.
There's a bit of a gap after that. The next time we see anything surfable is Sunday afternoon, September 6th. A 1ft groundswell from the ENE with an 11-second period, glassy wind, but the combined energy is only 61. It's a tiny, slow window.
The last little flicker of life comes mid-week. Thursday morning, September 10th, has a 3ft NE swell with a 6-second period, and it's glassy calm. The combined energy is 65, so it's weak, but it's clean. The Thursday afternoon is similar, with a 3ft NE swell, cross-offshore SE wind at 3 mph, and combined energy of 93. Still small, still clean, but at least you can get a few dribblers.
In short, we've got a few small, clean mornings to pick at, but nothing with any real power. The water temperature is about average for this time of year. For a point break like Domes, the long period swells (11 seconds) are nice, but the small size means it's really just a beginner's playground or a longboard cruise. The crowds are often here, so be prepared to share the peak. If you're looking for anything more than a gentle paddle, you might be better off waiting for a bigger forecast.
Rusty.

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 Domes (Rincon) 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.
