The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here with a look at what's coming up for Condos. Gonna be honest, straight off the bat, we've got a lean spell ahead.
Looking at the whole 16-day window, the surf is pretty flat and messy for the most part. There's a long stretch here where it’s just not worth paddling out. From now, right through the end of August and deep into the first week of September, we’ve got nothing but small, weak lines. The energy is almost non-existent, with the combined swell energy sitting at a paltry 8 for most of it, with a brief rise to just 26 or so. It's tiny, short-period windswell with periods around 4 to 6 seconds, and the wind is often cross-on or onshore, chopping up what little bit of wave there is. Even when we get a glassy morning on the 28th of August, with a little 2 ft SSE windswell, it’s just too small and weak to do anything with. The water temp is sitting around 85°, which is about average for this time of year, so that's one small win.
This quiet run carries on into the new month. We're looking at a solid week-and-a-half of no real recommendations. The conditions only get close to interesting around Thursday the 10th of September. That morning, we see the swell start to lift a bit, with a combined energy reaching 86 as a 2 ft easterly groundswell rolls in. The period jumps to 9 seconds, which is a bit of a bump in energy, but the wind is still cross-on from the SSE. It's a glimmer of hope, but still not worth getting too excited about.
The best on offer in this whole run, and I'm saying this with a caveat, is Thursday the 10th of September. The morning has that modest 2 ft swell pushing in from the east with a 9-second period. The wind is light from the SSE, so it’ll be cross-on but not too strong. The combined swell energy (86) is the highest we'll see. It’s a beach break at Condos, and with that longer-period groundswell, it might hold up a bit better than the rest. But don't expect anything epic. For the beginners who usually like it here, the size is fine, but the quality is marginal.
For the rest of the window, honestly, it's one to sit out. A few mornings do have glassy conditions, like the 28th and 29th of August, but the swell is so tiny it’s barely a ripple. It’s rare we see such a flat stretch. The forecasts can always change, but for now, it's a waiting game.
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.
