The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – the forecast for Condos is looking pretty grim. We’ve got a full 16-day window, but there’s hardly a session worth paddling out for. The whole run is plagued by crummy, short-period windswell from the SSE and SE, with nearly constant cross-onshore winds messing up any chance of a clean face. You’re looking at a long, flat stretch of poor surf conditions.
The water temperature is sitting at 84°F with a tiny anomaly of 0.4°F, so it’s bang on average for this time of year. That’s about the only thing that’s not disappointing.
The first few days are a write-off: Sunday the 19th through Tuesday the 22nd give us waves around 2 ft to 3 ft, with periods of just 4 to 5 seconds and weak energy (ranging from 18 to 49). The wind is a consistent cross-on, making everything choppy and close to unrideable. Wednesday the 22nd does see a brief window of cleaner conditions with a light cross-off, but the swell is still tiny at 2 ft to 2 ft – not enough to generate any real push.
The action picks up slightly around Monday the 27th, with swell nudging up to 4 ft, but the period is still a weak 6 seconds and the wind is back to cross-on and choppy. By Tuesday the 28th of July, we get a spike in the combined swell energy (602) with a 6 ft SE swell. That’s actually some decent size, but with a period of only 7 seconds and a constant cross-on wind, it’s going to be a lumpy, walled-up mess. The energy is there, but the quality is shot. This is probably the most interesting day for the kite crew, but for a paddle surfer, it’s a tough ask.
After that, it tails off back into the 3 ft to 4 ft range with the same story: short period, onshore wind, poor surf. The last few days into August offer the same old song. There’s simply no standout session here. The best bet is to keep an eye on that Tuesday the 28th for a novelty paddle if you’re desperate, but don’t expect any magic.
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.
