The Lowdown
Alright, let’s get real about Condos. This is a beginner-friendly spot that’s exposed to the swell, but honestly, the whole 16-day window is a tough one. Water temp is sitting around 84°, which is basically average for this time of year – nothing wild there.
Right from the start, Monday afternoon the 10th of August is a write-off: tiny 2ft SE swell with a short 5-second period, and a moderate 16 mph onshore wind. That’s poor surf conditions – full stop. That sets the tone.
Through Tuesday the 11th and Wednesday the 12th, we’re stuck with knee-high 3ft to 4ft swell from the SE, period hanging around 5 seconds. The wind is cross-onshore and fresh by the afternoon of the 12th, making it lumpy. The wave energy is weak to moderate – hitting 70 (moderate). Still, poor surf.
Thursday the 13th shows a slight bump – 4ft SE swell, period up to 6 seconds, and energy climbs to 102 (moderate). But that fresh 19 mph cross-onshore wind kills it. Lumpy and poor.
Friday the 14th through Sunday the 16th stay in that same ugly groove: 3ft to 4ft, short period, cross-onshore winds. Crowds are “sometimes” an issue here, but honestly, nobody’s gonna be fighting for these waves.
Now, Monday the 17th of August morning – here’s a glimmer. Swell drops to 2ft from the SE, period still short at 6 seconds, but the wind goes glassy. That’s the only time in the whole 16 days where the surface cleans right up. If you’re keen on a longboard or a foamie and just want to bob around, that Monday morning could be a quiet, clean little session. But the energy is weak (27).
After that, it’s more of the same right through to Tuesday the 25th of August: tiny swell, poor winds, and consistently poor surf conditions. The combined energy never pushes past 70 again, and most days are just 1ft to 4ft with period between 4 and 6 seconds. The setup’s a beach, and with these winds it’s more of a kite thing than a paddle thing.
So, there’s a massive gap from now all the way through. No standouts to get excited about. If you’ve got a longboard and patience, that glassy Monday the 17th is your best bet. Otherwise, it’s a flat spell with lousy wind. Forecasts can change, but right now… go do something else.

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.
