The Lowdown

Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let's be straight with you. Looking at the next couple of weeks, we've got a pretty quiet stretch on the cards. The swell window is mostly shut, and what's showing is small and pretty unimpressive. We're not looking at any kind of magic forecast, so let's keep the expectations low and the stoke in check.

The first real chance of anything rideable at Domes (Rincon) is going to be on the morning of Friday the 14th. It’s not going to blow your hair back, but there’s a small pulse of 3ft swell from the ENE. The period is a short 8 seconds, so it's not going to have much punch. The winds in the morning are light from the ENE, so conditions should be clean. It’s a bit of a dribbler, but it might be the best on offer for a couple of days. The energy is weak, at 115 (moderate wave energy), so don't expect much.

Saturday the 15th looks the most promising of the whole run, and honestly, it’s the only real standout. The swell bumps up to 4ft in the morning from the NE, but the real kick comes in the afternoon. We see a jump to 8ft from the NE with a period of 6 seconds. This is a steep, short-interval swell, and combined with a moderate ENE cross-off breeze, it’s going to be a bit of a messy, powerful lump. The energy reading jumps to 399 (moderate wave energy), which is the strongest we'll see. This is more of a punchy, tricky wave though, and with 8ft on offer, it's pushing out of beginner territory. It could be fun for the more experienced crew, but it's not for the faint of heart.

After that, the surf just fades away again. Sunday the 16th morning has a bit of leftover 4ft swell, but it's weak and on the drop. By the afternoon, it's all but gone. The rest of the week, from the 17th through the 24th, is a write-off. There are days of near-flat conditions with nothing but ankle-biters. There are a few mornings with glassy conditions during this stretch, like on the 20th and 21st, but there is simply no swell to push through. It's a long, flat spell.

Into the final week, around the 25th and 26th of August, we might see a tiny bump of long-period energy. The 26th shows a 2ft swell but with a 9-second period from the NE. That's a bit more of a groundswell pulse, but it's still very small. Winds look good on the morning of the 26th, with a glassy calm forecast. But again, it's tiny. These long-range signals are promising, but with this little size, it's hard to get excited.

So, there you have it. The only real call for a proper surf is Saturday afternoon, but even that is a grungy, short-period windswell. If you're desperate, Friday morning will give you a few clean little shoulders. For everyone else, it might be a good week to find a different hobby. There are some clean, glassy mornings scattered in there, but with no waves, it's just a pretty ocean.

This stint looks set to stay small for a while. It's a typical lull for the area, and with a few consistent signals in the data, it tends not to stay this poor for long. The forecasts can change, so we'll keep an eye on it.

Stay salty.

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.
