The Lowdown
Alright, let's get into it. The next couple of weeks are looking a bit of a mixed bag, but there are definitely a few days to keep your eye on.
Right now, we're in a bit of a flat spell. There's very little energy in the water for the next week or so. From this Sunday the 13th right through to Thursday the 24th, it's mostly tiny, weak surf with combined swell energy barely getting into double digits (peaking at just 87 on the 18th). It's a real waiting game.
The first hint of life shows up on Thursday the 24th. We've got a pulse of moderate energy (145) from the NNE, with clean conditions and light breezes. The swell is small, around 3ft, but the winds are off or cross-off, so it could be worth a look if you're desperate for a paddle. It's not the standout though.
The real standout starts to build on Friday the 25th. The swell kicks up to a clean 3ft from the North, and the combined energy jumps to a solid 219. Morning looks best with a light cross-off breeze keeping it clean. The swell period is a decent 10 seconds, so there's some shape there.
Then Saturday the 26th is looking like the pick of the bunch. We've got the same 3ft swell from the NNE, but the period stretches to 11 seconds, and the energy jumps to a strong 463. The wind goes glassy all day – that's about as good as it gets for clean conditions. This will be the best day, hands down. The swell direction from the NNE is right in the wheelhouse for Domes (Rincon).
Sunday the 27th still has some decent energy (213) and glassy conditions in the morning, with that 3ft NNE swell. The afternoon turns a bit ugly with moderate rain and a fresh onshore breeze, so get out early.
By Monday the 28th, we're winding back down. Still clean and glassy in the morning, but the swell drops to 2ft and the energy is fading (94). Worth a dawn session if you missed the weekend.
So, to sum it up: The next week is flat, so don't bother. The action kicks off on Friday the 25th and peaks on Saturday the 26th. Saturday is the clear standout – good size, good period, and perfect glassy conditions. Mark it in your calendar.

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.
