The Lowdown
Alright, let’s get this straight: the next 16 days are looking pretty grim. For most of the window, there’s nothing worth paddling out for. The first real chance to even consider a surf doesn’t come until Tuesday 4th August, and even then, it’s not great. Before that, we’ve got a run of weak, short-period windswell from the SSE and SE, all pummelled by cross-onshore winds. It’s choppy, lumpy, and sloppy. You’d be better off staying on the beach.
The only break on the cards is Condos – a beginner-friendly spot that’s fairly consistent, but it’s exposed to the swell and the optimum direction is from the SE. The problem is, the swell direction is mostly SSE, so it’s not wrapping in perfectly. The water temp is sitting at 84°F, which is about 0.5°F above average – nothing to write home about, just standard tropical warmth.
If you’re desperate, Tuesday 4th August morning might be your best bet. The swell pushes up to 4 ft from the SE, with a period of 6 seconds – short and weak, but it’s the biggest we’ll see. The combined energy is still weak at 75 (just a touch of energy). Wind is a moderate cross-onshore from the SSE at 12 mph, so it’ll be choppy, but it’s the least ugly of a bad bunch. It’s not a standout, just the least terrible option.
From Thursday 6th August onwards, the swell drops back to 3 ft or less, and the wind stays cross-onshore or onshore. No clean conditions, no real power. The energy barely cracks 55 most days. This is a long, flat, frustrating stretch.
Bottom line: There’s no standout session here. If you’ve got a kite, the cross-onshore wind and small, lumpy waves might be more your thing. For a paddle surfer, this is a 16-day write-off. Forecasts can change, but right now, it’s a big fat zero.

Information about the Condos Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Condos provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Condos can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Condos 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 (Condos) 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 Condos 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.
