The Lowdown
Alright, folks, Rusty here. Let's take a look at what's on the menu for the next couple of weeks.
Well, I gotta be straight with you – it’s a tough stretch ahead. Right now, and for the foreseeable future, we’ve got a real flat spell settling in. The models are showing nada for a solid two weeks, maybe longer. It’s one of those quiet periods where the ocean just goes to sleep. There’s no good surf on offer at all in this 16-day window.
We’re looking at Condos, a beginner-friendly spot that’s fairly consistent, but even that can’t buy a wave. The main issue is the swell direction, coming from the SE and SSE, which is pretty much straight onshore for this exposed break. The wind is a mess, too, with constant cross-onshore and onshore breezes blowing. The swell heights are tiny, between 1 ft and 3 ft, and the periods are super short at 4 to 6 seconds, meaning no real push or shape. The combined wave energy stays weak, barely cracking 75 (75) at its best, which is just a dribble. For a spot that needs a clean SE groundswell, we’re getting the opposite of what we want.
The only slight glimmer is maybe Monday morning, September 21st, with a bit more energy (66) and the swell direction swinging more to the SSE, but the wind is still a cross-onshore mess and there’s heavy rain predicted. Not exactly a session to write home about. Honestly, for a beach break setup like this, with these winds and tiny swell, it's looking more like a kite surfer's playground than a paddle surfer's paradise.
So, the call is simple: sit this one out, boys and girls. The ocean is on a break. It won't stay poor forever, forecasts can change, but for now, you're better off waxing the longboard and waiting for a real pulse.
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.
