The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – this stretch of coast is in a flat spell. The entire 16-day window is a write-off for any decent surf. We’re looking at a long, blank run with no standout options at all.
The only break on the cards is Condos, and it’s a tough watch. The swell is tiny, never getting above 4ft, and the direction is sloppy out of the SSE or SE – not the optimum SE these waves want. The period is short, mostly 4 to 6 seconds, meaning weak, wind-affected lines. The combined energy stays low, never cracking 100, so it’s all weak (83 at best). The wind is a constant problem, blowing cross-on or onshore from the SE or S at 9 to 16 mph, keeping the surface chopped up and messy. There’s a couple of glassy moments on the morning of the 17th and 18th of September, but with swell at just 0.7ft and 0.3ft, there’s nothing to ride.
For a beginner spot that’s fairly consistent, this is a rare dead run. The water temperature is sitting at 86°F with a 0.9°F anomaly, so it’s about average for this time of year, but there’s no surf to enjoy it in. The whole period is a dud. Don’t bother paddling out – this setup looks more interesting for a kite than a surfboard. Forecasts can change, but right now, it’s flat.
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.
