The Lowdown

G’day, Rusty here. Look, I’ve got to be straight with you – the outlook for Condos over the next couple of weeks is pretty grim. There’s really nothing to get excited about, and it’s a long, dry stretch. The first real chance of a wave doesn’t even show up until Saturday morning, 22 August, and even then, it’s tiny.

We start off on Saturday the 22nd with a small, weak SSE swell pushing in at 2 ft, with a short period of just 4 seconds and weak energy (15). The wind’s light and cross from the SSW, so the surface isn’t totally trashed, but it’s still a cross-shore bump. By the arvo, the wind swings SE and picks up to 12 mph, making it choppy and onshore. The swell drops to 1 ft. This pattern pretty much holds all through that weekend and into the following week – tiny waves, onshore or cross-onshore winds, and poor conditions. The water temp is sitting at 85°, which is pretty normal for this time of year, so at least the paddle’s warm.

Come Tuesday the 25th, the morning swell bumps up slightly to 3 ft, still from the SSE with a 5-second period and energy reading 28. But the wind is a moderate 12 mph from the south, cross-onshore, so it’s choppy and messy. Not a surfable moment in sight. The whole of that last week of August and first few days of September is more of the same: weak, short-period SSE to SE swell, rarely reaching even 3 ft, with persistent onshore or cross-onshore breezes.

There’s a small bump in the energy on the 6th of September – a Sunday morning – with the swell hitting 3 ft from the SE, period still only 6 seconds, and the combined energy climbing to 92. Still, the wind is cross-onshore from the SE at 9 mph, making it fairly choppy. The afternoon gets a bit bigger, 4 ft from the SE, period 7 seconds, and energy hits 143 (moderate energy now), but the wind is onshore from the east at 12 mph. It’s still messy, poor surf conditions. For a beginner spot like Condos, that’s not going to be any fun.

The bottom line: there are zero standout sessions here. The entire 16-day run is flat or blown out. Condos is a beginner-friendly, fairly consistent spot, but when the swell is this small and the wind is this bad, you’re better off doing something else. The setup is a beach break, and with the constant onshore wind and weak swell, this looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. Keep an eye on the forecasts – they can change – but for now, leave the board at home.

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.
