The Lowdown
G'day, Rusty here. Look, I'm gonna level with you straight up – we've got a bit of a long wait on our hands if you're looking for anything decent. This 16-day outlook is about as flat and messy as it gets for the Condos. The only break on the cards is Condos itself, and honestly, it's a tough watch for the foreseeable future.
The whole run is plagued by tiny, weak swell. We're talking waves mostly between 1ft and 3ft, with the combined wave energy barely getting out of the double digits – mostly sitting between 11 and 48 (weak energy). That's not surf, that's a lake with a bit of a bump. To make matters worse, the wind is a constant problem, blowing cross-on or onshore from the SE or SSE for the vast majority of the period, chopping up what little shape there is.
For the first week and a half, it's a write-off. From Monday, August 24th, right through to Sunday, September 6th, every session is described as "poor surf conditions." There's no standout, no hidden gem. The water temp is a warm 86°F with an anomaly of 2°F, so it's about average for this time of year, but you won't be feeling it because you'll be sitting on a flat board.
On Monday, September 7th, there's a slight nudge. The swell height tickles 3ft from the SSE and the combined energy pushes up to 41 (still weak). The wind is still cross-on and choppy though, so it's a marginal step up at best. Tuesday, September 8th, offers a brief moment of relief with a SSW wind at 9 mph, giving us a cross-shore breeze for the morning. The swell is a measly 2ft, but at least the wind won't be ruining it completely.
But that's it. The only real sliver of hope. The break is fairly consistent, so it's not like the area never gets waves, but this forecast is a blank run. For a beginner spot like Condos, with waves barely reaching 3ft for weeks on end, you're better off leaving the board at home. Even on the 8th, it's not enough to get excited about. Honestly, this setup looks more interesting for a flat-water paddle than surfing.
So, to sum it up: a 16-day stretch with no good surf. The wait for something rideable is over a week long, and even then, it's just barely surfable. Forecasts can change, but this one's a dud.
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.
