The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cooking for Domes (Rincon). The whole 16-day window is pretty bleak, to be honest. There’s a long stretch of nothing worth paddling for, starting right now and running through the whole period. We get a tiny bump here and there, but nothing you’d want to tell your mates about.
Sunday, August 30th – The first little pulse arrives in the afternoon. We’re talking wind swell from the NE at a pathetic 3 ft, but the period is a short and weak 8 seconds. The combined energy is only moderate (119), so it’s not even packing a punch. The wind swings light easterly, giving a cross-offshore breeze that will clean things up a bit. It’s surfable, but it’s ordinary – a knee-high dribbler at best. Not for beginners, just small.
Monday, August 31st – The morning sees a drop to 2 ft from the NE, with a slightly better 9-second period. The wind turns SE, blowing offshore, so the surface will be clean. Combined energy is weak at 88. This is the only time where the conditions aren’t a total write-off, but the swell is too small to call it a standout. It’s a waste of a good wind.
From there, it’s a total blank. The rest of the forecast is a graveyard of poor surf. The energy drops to single digits and teens (7, 10, 11), with winds swinging onshore or cross-shore. There’s no quality, no size, and no consistency. You’re looking at a solid 13-day stretch from September 1st through September 13th where you’d be better off cleaning your board than taking it out. There is simply nothing to recommend. The only break we have is Domes, a beginner-friendly point break, but the swell just isn’t there.
Bottom line: Forget the next two weeks. The water’s around 85°, which is about 2° warmer than average, so it’s a nice temp if you’re just floating around, but the surf is dead. Don’t bother.
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.
