The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the menu for the Condos stretch. I gotta be straight with you – it's a bit of a slow burner for the first week and a half.
We're looking at a long, flat spell kicking things off. From Sunday the 30th of August right through to Thursday the 10th of September, it's pretty much a write-off. The swell is tiny, barely a ripple, with most days seeing waves under 3ft and the wind is either onshore or cross-onshore, just chopping everything up. You're looking at weak energy levels, with combined swell energy often in the teens or low twenties. The water temp is sitting at a warm 85°, which is pretty normal for this time of year, so at least the air will be warm when you're sitting on the beach waiting.
The first real glimmer of hope comes on Friday the 11th of September. The morning is a bit iffy with a risk of thunderstorms and a messy 6ft cross-shore swell, but things clean up nicely in the afternoon. We get a lightweight 5ft cross-offshore breeze from the SW, and the combined energy jumps to 292 (moderate). That's the first decent window.
Now, the standout of the whole forecast is Saturday the 12th of September. Saturday morning is the one to circle on the calendar. We’ve got a clean 6ft swell from the SE with a light cross-offshore breeze. The combined energy is a solid 782 (moderate-strong). That’s chest to head high, clean, and lining up. The swell period is only 8 seconds, so it's more of a wind swell, but with that glassy wind it should be plenty fun. This is a beginner-friendly break, so 6ft will be pushing it for the less experienced, but for the regulars, that’s a solid morning wave. The crowds are listed as "sometimes," so expect a few out but it shouldn't be a zoo.
The afternoon on Saturday takes a turn for the worse, with the wind swinging onshore and killing the quality. Sunday the 13th and Monday the 14th see the swell size bump up to 7ft and 7ft, and even 6ft, but the wind is all wrong, onshore and messy, creating choppy conditions. Those bigger days are for the experts only, but honestly, the wind is going to make them a battle.
So to wrap it up: the first week is a total bust. The only real highlight is Saturday the 12th of September morning. Get out there early, grab a few clean ones, and be done before the wind changes.
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.
