Alright, this is Rusty. Look, I’m just going to call it like I see it. For our local stretch, the surf forecast is a long, quiet, frustrating wait. We don’t even get a sniff of something rideable until the morning of Tuesday, July 14, and even that is only “marginal” at best. Everything before that is a bust.
The only spot in the mix is Condos (United States). It’s a beginner-friendly wave, fairly consistent, with a SE preference. But from Sunday, July 5, all the way through to Monday, July 13, it’s nothing but tiny, weak swell – most of it under 3 ft – with a short period of just 4 to 6 seconds. The wind is from the S or SSE, blowing cross-on, keeping everything choppy and messy. The combined wave energy is weak, mostly in the double digits (from 19 to 218), and every single time slot says “poor surf conditions.” It’s a wasteland.
Then, on Tuesday morning, July 14, we get a little bump. A 4 ft swell from the SE with an 8-second period pushes the energy up to 200 – that’s moderate. But the wind is still light and cross-on from the SSE, so the surface will have small wind ripples. The comment is “marginal,” so it’s not clean, but it’s the only window on the board. After that, it drops back off into poor conditions again through Friday, July 17.
Around July 18, we see a risk of thunderstorms and the wind really cranks up, especially on Sunday, July 19, with a fresh 35 km/h cross-on breeze. The swell tries to build to 5 ft from the SSE with energy at 229, but that wind is going to trash the surface – lumpy, messy, and rough. With that kind of wind and a beach setup, it’s more of a kite-surfing scenario than a surfing one.
So to sum it up: a long, flat, choppy stretch, one marginal window on the 14th, and then more wind-affected junk. Not much to get excited about.
Stay patient. 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.
