The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you: the next couple of weeks are looking pretty flat for Domes (Rincon). We’ve got a solid run of tiny, weak surf with almost no energy behind it. The long-range picture shows a few flickers of life, but nothing that’s gonna get your heart racing.
We’re kickin’ off on Tuesday morning, July 14th, with the smallest of swells. Domes is seeing a little 0.7ft wave from the NNE, but with a period of just 10 seconds and combined energy of only (22), it’s barely a ripple. The wind is glassy, which is a beautiful thing, but there’s just not enough water moving to make it worthwhile. The water temp is about average for the time of year, nothing to write home about.
This flat spell is gonna drag on. Wednesday the 15th through to Sunday the 26th of July is a long stretch of nothing. We’re talking days and days of poor surf conditions, with wave heights mostly under 2ft and combined energy levels stuck in the low double digits – often well under 30. You’ll see some glassy mornings, like Sunday the 19th and Tuesday the 21st, which is a tease. The wind will be light and clean occasionally, but the swell just isn’t there. It’s a real bummer.
The only glimmer on the horizon comes at the tail end of the forecast. Tuesday, July 28th, the afternoon shows a bit of a pulse. We’re looking at 3ft from the NE with a period of 6 seconds and combined energy climbing to (72). It’s not big, but it’s the most energy we’ve seen in the whole run. The wind is offshore from the E, so it’ll be clean. For a point break like Domes, which is exposed to the NNW, this NE swell isn’t quite the right direction, but it’s the best we’ve got. Late July is starting to look a little more promising, but it’s a long way off.
Bottom line: save your energy for the last few days of the month. The first two and a half weeks are a write-off.
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.
