The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty. Let's talk about what's on the menu for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it's a pretty quiet stretch. The surf is really small and the wind is just not playing ball. We're looking at a long run of marginal conditions, with the first real chance of a wave coming in on Sunday the 27th of July, but even then it's a struggle.
We start with Condos. The swell is tiny, around 3 ft to 3 ft, coming from the SSE and SE, but the period is a short, weak 5 to 6 seconds. The real killer is the wind. For the first week, it's relentless cross-onshore, blowing from the S, SSE, and SE, at 9 to 19 mph. That's making for choppy, lumpy, poor surf. The combined wave energy is weak, struggling between 30 and 80 (moderate wave energy). The water temperature is about average for this time of year. There's nothing here worth paddling out for.
The pattern doesn't change much into the second week. From Friday the 1st of August through to Sunday the 10th of August, it's more of the same. Small 2 ft to 3 ft swell, still short-period, and the wind stays mostly cross-onshore, though it does lighten up a little on the morning of Thursday the 6th of August. Even then, the waves are still poor. The energy is never there, and the conditions are never clean. This is a stretch where you're better off keeping the board in the car.
There is no standout. There is no best on offer. You're looking at a full 16-day window with no real surf to get excited about. The few rides you might snag will be small, choppy, and frustrating. If you're a kite surfer, those cross-onshore winds might be your thing, but for a paddle surfer, this is a write-off.

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.
