The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again. Let’s be honest – the next two weeks at Domes (Rincon) are looking super flat and quiet. This is one of those runs where you’re better off on the beach with a cold one, because the surf just isn’t showing up. We’ve got a long gap of tiny, weak waves ahead, so don’t get your hopes up.
Right now, over the next few days, it’s near flat. Sunday morning the 26th is glassy but tiny, with a weak 2ft swell from the northeast at a short 7 seconds. The combined energy is a measly 43, so there’s hardly any push. The water is a warm 84°, which is about normal for this time of year. Not worth paddling for.
Monday the 27th and Tuesday the 28th are more of the same – glassy mornings with tiny 1ft to 2ft swells. The energy is low, in the teens or low twenties. It’s all pretty sad.
There is a slight flicker on Wednesday afternoon the 29th. We get a bit more size, up to 3ft from the northeast, with a light offshore wind. The energy bumps a little to 89, but it’s still very weak. The surf is surfable, but very ordinary. Thursday the 30th afternoon sees the energy finally crack triple digits at 121, with a 4ft northeast swell, but it’s still not enough to get excited about. The wind is clean, so it’s not a total washout, but it’s just small.
From Friday the 31st all the way through to August 10th, it’s a long, flat stretch. Most days show waves under 2ft, with very low energy and poor conditions. The few times we get any wind, it’s cross or onshore, messing up the tiny bumps. August 9th Sunday afternoon shows a little more energy at 86 with a 2ft northern swell, but it’s still just ordinary.
Truth is, there’s no standout session here. Nothing is big enough to get your heart racing. The best you can hope for is a glassy morning with a knee-high ripple, and even that’s a stretch. The swell direction from the northeast doesn’t match the optimum northwest direction for this point break, so the waves won’t be wrapping in well. For a spot that’s usually consistent, this is a real dry spell. It’s worth checking back in a few days – forecasts can change – but right now, save your energy.
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.
