The Lowdown
Alright, let’s get into it. The next couple of weeks are pretty quiet here at Domes (Rincon). This is a consistent point break that’s beginner-friendly, but for the most part, we’re looking at a long stretch of marginal surf. The water’s sitting around 84°, which is about average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
The first recommendation doesn’t pop up until Thursday, 13th August. That morning, we get a bit of a pulse with a 4ft NE swell, period around 6 seconds, and combined energy of 102 (moderate). The wind is glassy – calm, dead calm – which will make for clean, smooth conditions. It’s small, but for a spot that’s been flat for days, this is a welcome sight. The afternoon picks up a little more: 5ft NE swell, still short-period at 6 seconds, but offshore wind from the SE at 12 mph, keeping it clean. The energy bumps to 138 (moderate). This is the best on offer across the whole outlook. The swell direction (NE) isn’t a perfect match for the optimum NNW, but the offshore wind and glassy morning make it workable.
Friday, 14th August carries some leftover energy. Morning shows 4ft NE swell (129 energy), but the wind is light cross-shore, not ideal. The afternoon has 4ft NE swell (145 energy) with a light cross-off breeze – still clean but not as punchy as Thursday.
Beyond that, it drops off fast. Saturday and Sunday the 15th and 16th are tiny, under 2ft, and the wind isn’t helping. The rest of the second week looks very weak, with energy values in the single digits or low 20s. Nothing to get excited about.
So, the standout here is Thursday, 13th August – the morning glass-off session and the afternoon offshore wind give you the cleanest windows for a small but surfable wave. Friday is a backup, but it’s not as clean. The rest is a waiting game.
