Alright, Rusty here, let's talk about what's in store.
Honestly, looking at the next couple of weeks, the surf is pretty flat and messy for a while. The first solid window of proper waves doesn’t show up until we get closer to the second week, so you're looking at a bit of a dry spell for the first nine days or so.
The only spot we’ve got on the radar is Condos. It’s a beginner-friendly wave that’s fairly consistent, with an exposed SE swell window. The water temp is sitting at a warm 84°F, which is pretty much spot on for this time of year.
For the first few days, from Saturday the 4th through to around the 11th, it’s a real struggle. We're looking at tiny swell heights around 2ft to 4ft with short, weak periods of 4 to 6 seconds. The wind is mostly cross-onshore or onshore, keeping things choppy and messy. The combined wave energy is low, hovering between 12 and 74. It's not worth paddling out for; the conditions are just poor.
The same story continues through the middle of the month. By Saturday the 12th and Sunday the 13th, we start to see a pulse of energy build. On Monday the 13th, the swell picks up to 5ft from the SE with a period of 7 seconds, and the energy jumps to a moderate 191. But the wind is still a problem – cross-onshore and choppy – so it’s still a pass.
Now, the best bet in the whole forecast window looks to be Tuesday the 14th and Wednesday the 15th. On Tuesday morning, we get a 5ft swell from the ESE with a 7-second period and a solid 228 combined energy. The wind is looking offshore from the ESE, which is a huge positive for clean conditions. Wednesday morning is similar, with a 5ft ESE swell, offshore wind from the SE at just 6 mph, and strong energy at 224. This will be the cleanest the waves will look all period. For a beginner spot, 5ft is getting up there, so it might be a bit much for the absolute newbies, but for the rest of us, it'll be the standout window.
After that, the swell slowly fades and the wind turns messy again into the third week, with energy dropping back down and onshore winds returning.
So, all in all, hold out for that window around the 14th and 15th of July. It’s not a classic, but it’s the closest we’ll get to a proper surf.
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.
