The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the menu for Condos.
Well, I gotta be straight with you – this is one of those outlooks where I'm squinting at the charts and scratching my head. For the next couple of weeks, from this Sunday, August 9th, right through to Saturday, August 23rd, it's a pretty grim run. We're looking at a solid 15-day stretch of flat, weak, and messy conditions. The wind is pretty much stuck in a cross-onshore pattern, squashing any hope of clean faces. The swell is tiny, mostly around 2 ft to 4 ft, and the period is a short, weak 5 to 6 seconds. The combined wave energy barely gets into three digits, peaking at a paltry 116 on Thursday the 13th, but it's still all slop. Honestly, for a paddle surfer, this setup is more interesting for the kite surfers if they're keen.
The first real glimmer of hope, and I mean a glimmer, doesn't show up until Monday, August 24th. The morning session finally sees a pulse of juice. The swell is picking up to a more respectable 6 ft, but it's only a 6-second period, so it's still a bit fat and gutless. The combined energy jumps to 205 (moderate), which is the best we've seen by a mile. The wind is looking light and cross-onshore, which could clean it up a touch. But the forecast says "marginal," so don't expect perfection. It's the only window in the whole 16-day outlook that has any real potential, but it's still a long way out, so keep your fingers crossed.
For a bit of context, the water temp on that first Sunday (August 9th) is a balmy 84°F, which is bang on average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
So, bottom line: the next two weeks are a write-off for decent waves at Condos. The only day that might be worth a paddle is the morning of Monday, August 24th, and even that's a long shot. Don't go getting your hopes up too high, but keep an eye on the charts.
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.
