The Lowdown
Rusty here, and I’ve gotta level with you – the next two weeks at Condos are looking like a total bust. If you’re hoping to get wet, you’re better off checking your wax stash and waiting.
The pattern from the get-go is small and unsurfable. The water is a warm 85°, nothing unusual for the season, anomaly-wise. But the waves? Man, they’re just not showing up.
From Saturday the 22nd of August through Sunday the 6th of September, there’s a complete dry spell. Not a single session I’d recommend. The swell is barely a ripple – 1 ft to 3 ft at best – coming from the SSE or SE with a period of only 4 to 5 seconds. That’s pure junk. The combined wave energy is all ticking between 8 and 45 – that’s the weak stuff, barely enough to ruffle the surface. And the wind is relentless onshore and cross-onshore from the SE, blowing 9 mph to 16 mph, which keeps the surface all choppy and blown-out. A few morning windows with a cross-shore from the SSW or S on the 23rd and 25th of August offer a slightly cleaner look, but with a swell of 2 ft and a 4-second period, there’s nothing to push you around.
No standout days, nothing even close. For a beginner-friendly break like Condos, even a tiny clean wave would be a treat, but this entire 16-day stretch is just persistent poor surf conditions. It’s one of those long, quiet runs. Chances can change, but right now, the ocean is saying “stay on the sand.”

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.
