The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin’ for Domes (Rincon).
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – this 16-day window is a tough one for Domes. We’ve got a long stretch of meager, mostly poor conditions. The water temp is sitting at about 85°, which is pretty normal for this time of year, so at least you won’t need a steamer.
The first bit of hope comes on Monday afternoon, the 10th of August. We’re looking at a tiny 3ft swell out of the NE, with a short 6-second period. The wind is a light cross-offshore breeze, which will keep things clean. It’s surfable, but it’s very ordinary – just a little something to get wet if you’re desperate. The energy is weak (88).
Then we get a bit of a bump on Friday morning, the 14th of August. Swell picks up to 5ft from the ENE, period still a short 6 seconds. The combined energy climbs to 286, which is moderate. Winds are light cross-shore, keeping it clean. It’s a marginal call, but it’s the best we’ve seen so far.
The standout, if you can call it that, is the Monday morning of the 17th of August. We’ve got 5ft from the NE with a 7-second period, and the energy is a moderate 255. The wind is a light cross-offshore breeze, so the surface should be clean. It’s still just a marginal day, but it’s the pick of the bunch. For a beginner-friendly point break like Domes, this is about as good as it gets in this run.
After that, it drops back into the doldrums. The rest of the window is filled with tiny, weak swells under 3ft and glassy or light wind conditions, but the waves just aren’t there. We’re talking combined energy values in the single digits and teens.
Honestly, for the whole 16 days, the best advice is to keep your board in the car, but don’t rush. The forecast can always change, but right now, it’s a real quiet spell.
