Alright, let’s get into it. The next couple of weeks are looking pretty flat and messy for the most part, so don’t get your hopes up too high. We’ve got a long stretch of small, weak, onshore wind swell with hardly any quality. The first real pulse of energy doesn’t show up until the second weekend, and even then it’s a bit of a gamble. Let’s break it down.
From Monday the 6th right through to Saturday the 11th, it’s a write-off. Tiny waves—2 ft to 3 ft—coming from the SSE or SE, with short periods of 4 to 5 seconds. That’s pure wind chop, and the wind is cross-onshore to onshore the whole time, so it’s bumpy and weak. The combined swell energy is barely cracking 14 to 43 (weak). No reason to paddle out.
Saturday the 11th afternoon sees a bit of a spike: 5 ft from the ESE, but period is still only 6 seconds, and the wind shifts onshore. The energy jumps to 156 (moderate), but the surf quality is still marked as poor. This is a messy, choppy setup—more for kites than paddles if you ask me.
Sunday the 12th through the following weekend (the 19th) stays in the 3 ft to 4 ft range, mostly from the SE, with periods stretching to 6 or 7 seconds. The energy is moderate, hitting 99 to 156, but the wind stays cross-onshore or onshore, so everything stays lumpy and uninviting. The water temperature is around 84°F, which is about normal for the time of year, so at least it’s warm to sit out.
The only little glimmer might be Tuesday the 14th morning and Wednesday the 15th morning, when the wind drops to light cross-onshore (6 mph) and the swell is 4 ft with a 7-second period. Still not clean, but the light breeze could make it a bit more manageable. The energy is 112 and 118 respectively (moderate). It’s not a standout, but it’s the least bad of a bad bunch.
Then, on Tuesday the 21st afternoon, we get a jump: 5 ft from the SE, period 6 seconds, with the energy climbing to 197 (moderate). But the wind is still cross-onshore at 16 mph, so expect lumpy, bumpy conditions. That’s the biggest swell of the forecast, but without clean wind, it’s not going to be a day to remember.
So, the honest truth? There’s no real standout here. The best you’ll get is a light-wind window on the 14th and 15th mornings, but even then it’s tiny and weak. The bigger push on the 21st is too far off and still looks messy. This is a tough run for Condos (beginner spot, fairly consistent but exposed to the SE). The crowds are sometimes a factor, but honestly, with this quality, you’ll have the place to yourself.
If you’re desperate, keep an eye on the 14th and 15th mornings for a paddle. Otherwise, it’s a waiting game.

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.
