The Lowdown
Hey folks, Rusty here. Let's be straight with you – the next 16 days at Condos are a real mixed bag, and not in a good way. We've got a solid 16-day window of forecasts, but honestly, there's barely a single session that screams "get in the water." The whole period is a write-off for decent surf. We're looking at a long, blank run of small, weak, and messy conditions.
The outlook starts on Tuesday, September 1st, and things are flat from the get-go. Tuesday morning we've got a tiny 1ft SSE swell (12 energy), but it's coming from the wrong direction and the wind is a cross-offshore breeze. It's not worth paddling out for. The whole first week is plagued by these small, short-period wind swells from the SSE and SE, all under 3ft, with periods of just 5 seconds. The combined wave energy in that first week is weak, barely cracking 40 at its peak (42 recorded on Thursday morning). The wind is a constant problem, too, mostly a moderate cross-onshore breeze that's making everything choppy and messy.
The second week doesn't get any better. From September 8th through the 16th, it's more of the same: tiny swell, almost always below 3ft, and period stuck at 5 or 6 seconds. The wind is relentless, staying cross-onshore and often fresh, creating lumpy, poor-quality surf. The energy levels are consistently low, with the highest reading being a meager 77 on Friday, September 11th. There's a brief moment on Wednesday, September 16th morning where the wind goes glassy, but the swell is still a pathetic 2ft from the SE with a short period. It's a tease, not a session.
The only break on offer here is Condos, and it's a beginner-friendly, fairly consistent spot. But it's no good if there's no swell. The water is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year (86°F), but that's the only positive.
Don't bother waxing up for this one, folks. It’s a complete washout. The forecast can always change, but for now, this is a solid 16-day gap with no real surf to speak of.
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.
