The Lowdown

Alright, let’s get into it. The next couple of weeks are looking pretty grim for any real surf. We’ve got a long stretch of small, weak, and messy waves ahead, so don’t get your hopes up too high.

Right out of the gate, from Sunday the 13th, we’re looking at tiny, short-period swell—around 2ft with a period of only 5 seconds. The wind is onshore and bumpy, so it’s going to be a messy, frustrated paddle for nothing. That weak energy reading of 35 confirms it—there’s just nothing to work with.

This carries right through Monday and Tuesday the 14th and 15th with similar junk: 3ft to 3ft of wind swell, cross-onshore winds making it choppy, and energy readings staying in the 40s. It’s all mush and whitewater. Wednesday the 16th drops even further, down to 1ft to 2ft, and there’s a risk of thunderstorms around, so the vibe is just off.

Thursday and Friday the 17th and 18th see a slight bump in size for Friday, hitting 4ft, but it’s short-period wind swell again, and the energy nudges up into the triple digits—118 on Friday morning—but it’s still all onshore and messy. Not worth the drive.

Saturday the 19th and Sunday the 20th back off again to 2ft to 2ft, with a little cross-off breeze on Sunday morning giving a brief clean window, but the swell is just too small to do anything with.

Then we hit the real flat spell. From the 21st through the 26th, we’re looking at 1ft to 2ft of dribble, with periods dropping to 4 or 5 seconds. The energy readings are in the single digits and low teens—this is about as dead as it gets. There’s one glassy morning on the 24th and another on the 25th, but with waves that small, you’re just floating around, not surfing.

The 27th and 28th see a bit more push—up to 3ft on Sunday and Monday—with a bit more energy (71 to 110), but again, it’s fresh cross-onshore wind and lumpy conditions. This is not the kind of surf you’d bother suiting up for.

So, the bottom line: there is no standout day in this entire 16-day window. There are no good surf options here. The water’s warm—about 86°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year at Condos (Big Island)—but that’s about the only positive.

If you’re really jonesing, wait for those glassy mornings around the 24th and 25th, but don’t expect waves. This is a flat, blown-out stretch, and a blank run like this is pretty normal for the area. Forecasts can change, but right now, I’d keep the board in the car and find something else to do.

Rusty out.

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.
