The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, let's take a good look at what's coming our way.
First off, I gotta be straight with you – this stretch is a tough one. For the whole 16-day window starting now, it's looking like a write-off for any proper waves. The finder's got nothing for us, and the guidance file only flags one spot, Condos, but even that's not giving us anything rideable.
For the entire period, from Wednesday the 15th of July all the way through to Thursday the 30th, it's a blank run. The combined swell energy barely gets into three digits a few times, hitting a max of 134 (moderate energy) on Friday the 17th, but it's all coming with a messy, cross-onshore wind. The swell height tops out around 5 ft on Tuesday the 28th, but with periods of just 5 or 6 seconds, that's weak, short-period junk. The wind is a constant problem, mostly cross-on from the SSE or SE, gusting 12-19 mph – that's a moderate to fresh breeze that'll keep the surface choppy and lumpy. There's a brief moment on Wednesday the 22nd with a lighter breeze, but the swell is tiny at 2 ft, so no dice. The water's likely sitting about average for this time of year, so the only thing you're gonna get is a clean rinse.
Honestly, for a spot like Condos (a beginner-focused break that's fairly consistent), this kind of extended poor run happens. It's not unusual for the area. The setup with these winds and short-period swell is looking far more interesting for kite surfing than for paddle surfing.
Hang in there. Forecasts can change, and it tends not to stay this grim forever. But for now, the advice is simple: don't bother waxing up.

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.
