The Lowdown
Alright folks, let’s talk Domes (Rincon). Gonna be honest—this forecast is mostly a dud.
From now through Friday, August 28th, it’s virtually flat. Swell is 0.3ft to 1ft, short period, weak energy (13 to 81). Wind flips around, but when the waves are that tiny, it doesn’t matter. Not worth paddling out.
Then we get one bright spot. Saturday morning, August 29th: 3ft from the NE at 11 seconds—groundswell. Energy hits 231 (moderate). Wind is light cross-off out of the ENE, keeping the surface clean. This is the only real session in the whole 16 days. Small, clean, beginner-friendly. Water temp is 85°F, about 2°F warmer than normal, so pretty average for August.
After that Saturday morning, it’s back to small, gutless conditions. Sunday the 30th and Monday the 31st drop off again. Into early September, we get a few glassy mornings with tiny 1ft to 2ft swells from the ENE or NE, periods around 11 to 13 seconds. Energy is weak to moderate (66 to 127). The reports say “surfable but very ordinary,” and that’s being kind. If you’re really itching, the mornings on September 1st, 2nd, 5th, 6th, and 7th are glassy and clean, but there’s just no wave size.
By September 8th, it’s back to 0.7ft to 1ft and low energy. Nothing to chase.
To sum it up: the one and only standout is Saturday morning, August 29th. Clean 3ft NE groundswell, light offshore-ish wind, moderate energy. That’s your window. Everything else is flat or forgettable.
Rusty.

Information about the Domes (Rincon) Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Domes (Rincon) provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Domes (Rincon) can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Domes (Rincon) 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 (Domes (Rincon)) 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 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. 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.
