The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the table for the next couple of weeks.
To be honest, it's a tough outlook. The swell is tiny and the wind is mostly a mess. The water temp is sitting at a warm 85°F, which is pretty much spot on for this time of year, so at least you won't need a steamer.
For the entire 16-day window, we're looking at one single break that gets a mention, Condos. Right now, and for the next two weeks, it's just not happening. The swell is barely a ripple, with heights from 0.7ft to 3ft, and the energy is weak, with values between 8 and 59. The wind is almost always onshore or cross-onshore, chopping up whatever tiny bump there is.
There's a small glimmer on the morning of the 7th of September. We get a 3ft swell from the SE with clean, offshore winds from the W at 6 mph. It's surfable, but it's still pretty ordinary. The morning of the 9th of September is glassy with a 3ft SE swell, but again, it's nothing to write home about. For a beginner spot like Condos, these are the only windows worth paddling out for, and even then, keep your expectations low.
The rest of the period is a write-off. There are big gaps of days with zero recommendations. The wind is just too strong and from the wrong direction, or the swell is too small. It's a blank run for the area.
For a spot like this, when the swell is small and the wind is messy, it's more of a kite surfing setup than a paddle surfing one.
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.
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.
