The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s talk surf.
Right now, Domes (Rincon) is flat as a pancake for the first few days. No real swell to speak of—tiny, weak, and not worth wettin’ a suit for. The water is about normal for this time of year, and the mornings are glassy, but there’s just nothin’ to ride.
From Friday September 4th to Monday September 7th, it’s a bust. Swell heights are under 1ft, periods short, and the wave energy is in the weak range (numbers like 11, 6, 9). You’d be standin’ on the beach watchin’ the horizon for hours.
Things get a tiny pulse on Tuesday 8th and Wednesday 9th. Wednesday afternoon shows the best shot: glassy wind, a 3ft swell from the NE at 6 seconds, and combined energy climbing to 99 (still weak, but gettin’ there). It’s called “surfable but very ordinary”—and that’s the best we got.
Thursday 10th morning brings glassy conditions again, with a 2ft swell from the N at 10 seconds (energy 67). That longer period could make those little waves stand up a bit better. Still small, but clean.
Then from Saturday 12th onward, it’s back to small dribble. Some glassy mornings pop up—like Tuesday 15th morning with a calm 1ft from the NNW (energy 37), and Wednesday 16th morning with calm winds and a 1ft from the NNW (energy 31)—but none of it is enough for a proper session.
The best window is Wednesday afternoon September 9th and Thursday morning September 10th. For a beginner-friendly point like Domes, that 3ft NE glassy pulse with moderate energy (99) is the highlight of the whole sixteen days. The longer period (10 seconds) on Thursday might shape up a bit better. But overall, it’s a quiet period. Domes is usually consistent, so this stretch stands out as a slow run. Forecasts can flip, so don’t give up hope yet.
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.
