The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here again. Let’s break down this same stretch for the imperial-minded crew.

We’re lookin’ at Domes (Rincon) – a classic point break that’s consistent and beginner-friendly when it’s small. The water temp is about average for this time of year, so no nasty surprises there.

The first few days, from Monday the 24th through to Sunday the 30th of August, are basically a write-off. We’re talkin’ tiny, weak swell – mostly around 0.3 ft to 2 ft from the NE, with periods all over the map, from a gutless 5 seconds up to 14 seconds. The combined energy is pathetic, barely crackin’ 85 (weak). Winds are a mixed bag, but mostly glassy in the mornings, which is the only silver lining. Still, the waves are just too small and weak to bother with. Friday the 28th and Sunday the 30th mornings show a glimmer of “surfable” but it’s barely worth wettin’ a suit.

Then we hit a bit of a dry gap. Monday the 31st is still poor, with a tiny 0.7 ft to 1 ft swell. But hold on – Tuesday the 1st of September is where it finally starts to turn. That morning, we get a jump in energy to 239 (moderate) with a 3 ft groundswell from the ENE, period of 14 seconds, and it’s glassy. That’s a proper long-period groundswell, and on a point break like Domes, that’ll wrap in nicely with some real shape. The afternoon holds clean with a cross-offshore breeze. Wednesday the 2nd morning is also glassy with 3 ft NE swell and 203 energy – another solid session.

The standout here is the Tuesday the 1st of September morning session. That 3 ft groundswell, glassy conditions, and a long 14-second period will deliver some of the best waves we’ve seen in this whole stretch. It’s not huge, but it’ll be clean, lined up, and fun for everyone. The Wednesday morning is a close second, but Tuesday has the edge with that longer period.

After that, it gets messy again. Wednesday afternoon the 2nd gets blown out by a 12 mph cross-shore, and Thursday the 3rd is onshore and choppy. The following weekend (the 5th and 6th) looks small again, but then Sunday the 6th of September and Monday the 7th show another pulse of 3 ft NNE groundswell with 13-second period, glassy in the mornings, and energy back up to 241 and 206. That’s another promising window, but it’s more than a week away, so keep an eye on it.

All in all, the first week is a bust. The real action is the Tuesday the 1st of September morning as the best bet, with Sunday the 6th morning as a long-range hopeful.

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.
