The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Look, I’m not gonna sugarcoat it: the next couple of weeks are looking pretty grim for a proper paddle. We’ve got a whole lot of nothing on the menu for a solid stretch. The first real recommendation doesn't pop up until the 14th, so we're looking at a good ten-day gap of flat, blown-out, or just plain messy conditions before anything worth even waxing up for. The swell that does show up is small, short-period windswell, and that onshore energy is going to keep things choppy and junky. For the first week, it's basically a write-off. If you're desperate, you could maybe find a bump, but it’s not going to be a fun one.
The one bright spot in this whole 16-day window is on Monday the 14th. It's not a monster, but it’s the best we’re going to get. Condos (United States) is your go-to, but even then, it’s a struggle. It’s a fairly consistent beginner spot, exposed to that SE swell, but it’s only producing a modest 3.6ft of swell from the southeast with a short, weak 6-second period. The energy reads at a moderate 92 in the morning, building to 109 in the afternoon. It's still going to be cross-onshore and a bit lumpy, but it’s the only time the swell gets over 3ft. Water temp is sitting at 85.1° which is about average for this time of year, so it’s not a factor. Don't expect much.
The swell stays weak for the rest of the run. Even the 15th, with 3.6ft in the morning, is still just poor surf. It's all short-period, onshore slop. The best you can say is that on the 10th, there’s a brief moment of glassy conditions with the wind dropping out, but with only 2ft of swell and a 5-second period, it’s just flat and soft, not surfable. The rest of the time, the wind is just on it. The whole setup looks way more interesting for a kite surfer than for a paddle surfer, to be honest. There's just no quality to be found, so maybe save the car fuel and wait for the next system.

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.
