The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cooking for the next couple of weeks.
Right off the bat, I’ve gotta be straight with you – this is a tough one. We’re looking at a long, dry spell with basically nothing to get excited about for a solid week and a half. The first real chance you’ll have to even think about a wave comes on Thursday the 10th, and even then, it’s pretty ordinary.
From now until the 9th of September, there’s just nothing doing. The swell is tiny, the period is short, and the energy is almost non-existent. It’s a real flat spell. Don’t bother checking the cam until we get to that Thursday morning.
Alright, so on Thursday the 10th of September, we finally get a pulse. Domes (Rincon) will see a tiny bit of life with a 2ft swell from the North. The wind is glassy in the morning, turning clean with a light cross-off in the afternoon. The wave energy is still weak, only about 96 (moderate), but it’s the first surfable day in a long time. The water is a warm 86°, which is about a degree warmer than usual for this time of year, so it’s a nice bath.
The best of the whole run, and truly the only standout, is that Thursday the 10th morning session. It’s not big, it’s not powerful, but after a week of nothing, that 2ft from the North with glassy conditions will be a welcome sight for the longboard and the foils. The crowd can be an issue here, so expect a few people out trying to get a piece of the first real swell in a while.
After that, it fades back to nothing on Friday the 11th and we’re back into the doldrums. The combined energy drops back to 65 (weak) and the wind gets messy. It’s a tough stretch. The rest of the window looks pretty poor, with tiny swells and onshore winds. There’s a tiny 3ft bump on Thursday the 17th, but it’s a short-period 4 seconds from the NE, and the wind is cross-on. Honestly, that Thursday the 10th morning is your one and only shot. After that, it’s back to waiting.
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.
