The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer for the next couple of weeks.
To be straight with you, the outlook is a tough one. There’s a significant gap right at the start – no proper surf on the cards for a good stretch. The first and only real chance we get across the whole 16-day window is a brief moment early on, but the rest of the period is a write-off for surfable waves. You’re looking at a long, dry spell with no recommendations.
The one spot that’s on the radar is Condos (beginner-friendly, fairly consistent spot). The only time that looks even worth a paddle is the early morning of Sunday, August 2nd. We’ve got a small swell pushing in at 3 ft from the SSE, with a short period of just 5 seconds. The combined energy is weak at 54, so it’s not going to have any punch. The wind is a light cross-off from the SW at 3 mph, which will keep the surface clean. The water temp is sitting at 84°, which is about average for the time of year. For a beginner wanting a gentle, clean little wave, that Sunday morning is your only window. After that, the wind swings onshore and stays there, and the quality goes straight into the bin.
From Sunday afternoon onward, it’s all cross-onshore and choppy junk. The swell stays tiny, the period stays short, and the wind picks up from the SSE and SE, making everything a mess. There’s no point in describing each day because it’s the same story: poor surf conditions, day after day, right through to Monday, August 17th. If you’re a kiter, the persistent cross-onshore wind and small, weak swell might look like a playground, but for paddle surfing, it’s a total bust.
So, to sum it up: your only real shot at a surf is a very brief, clean, but small window on the morning of August 2nd at Condos. After that, it’s a long, blank run. That’s the truth of it.
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.
