The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here, and I’ve gotta be straight with you – for the next 16 days, we’re looking at a long, flat spell with barely a ripple to get excited about. The forecast is a real bummer, with no decent surf on the cards for the whole run. Let’s break it down.
We start off on Saturday the 29th of August, and right through to the 13th of September, the story is the same: tiny, weak swell and junk wind. The first few days, from Saturday afternoon through to Monday the 31st of August, the swell is only 0.7ft to 2ft from the ESE or SE, with periods of just 5 to 9 seconds. The combined energy is pathetic, sitting between 13 and 32 (weak). Winds are mostly onshore or cross-onshore, keeping the surface messy. It’s a total write-off.
Then we hit a stretch from Tuesday the 1st of September to Sunday the 6th of September – still no joy. Swell sits at 1ft to 2ft, period is a miserable 4 to 6 seconds, and the combined energy stays below 30 (weak). The wind is a mix of light cross-onshore and moderate onshore breezes, with the occasional clean moment on Monday the 7th of September morning when a light cross-offshore from the SW appears, but the swell is only 2ft with a 4-second period, so it’s barely surfable.
Looking further out, from Monday the 7th of September to the 13th of September, there’s a slight bump in size. The swell creeps up to 3ft to 4ft from the SSE and SE, with periods of 5 to 6 seconds. The combined energy eventually hits 111 on Friday the 11th of September morning (moderate), but the wind is either light cross-onshore or fresh onshore, making it choppy and lumpy. The best we get is a brief window of light cross-onshore breezes, but the swell is still short-period, weak, and poorly shaped.
The only break in the forecast is Condos, a beginner-friendly, fairly consistent spot that’s exposed to swell from the east. The water temperature is 85° with a 1° anomaly – that’s about average for the time of year, nothing to write home about.
Honestly, there’s not a single standout session in this whole 16-day window. The swell is too small, too weak, and the wind is mostly against us. If you’re desperate, the morning of Monday the 7th of September might offer the cleanest conditions with that light cross-offshore, but the waves will be ankle-biters. For the rest, it’s a kite-surfing setup if anything – the beach break with consistent onshore wind and small, choppy waves is more suited to kites than paddles.
Hang in there, folks. It tends not to stay this flat for long, but this is a rough patch. Forecasts can change, so keep an eye out, but for now, I’d be finding something else to do.
Rusty.

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.
Condos is 26 km (16 miles) from Corpus Christi. If you plan a vacation in Texas, look for hotels and other accommodation in Corpus Christi. Corpus Christi has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
