Alright folks, Rusty here. Looking at the charts for the next couple of weeks, and I gotta be straight with you—it’s a tough stretch. There’s a real dry spell on the horizon, so let’s not waste any time.
The first window of opportunity isn't until Monday the 13th of July, and even then, it’s a struggle. We’ve got small, weak swell from the southeast, running a meager 3 ft with a short, crumbly 6-second period. The combined energy is weak, sitting at only 69. What’s worse is the wind is a moderate cross-onshore breeze, making it choppy and messy. The water temp is about average for the time of year, so nothing unusual there. Honestly, it’s a poor setup for a paddle.
That pattern locks in for days. Monday the 13th through Saturday the 18th is all the same story: small 3 ft to 5 ft SE swell, short period, and cross-onshore winds. The energy picks up a tiny bit on Thursday the 16th morning, hitting 171, but it’s still a sloppy cross-on mess. For a beginner-friendly spot like Condos, none of this is inviting. If you’re a kite surfer, the consistent cross-on wind and lumpy water might look interesting, but for a surfboard, it’s a no-go.
From Sunday the 19th right through to the end of the outlook on Tuesday the 28th of July, the surf drops even further. We’re looking at 2 ft to 3 ft of weak, short-period swell with moderate to fresh cross-onshore winds. The energy is pitiful, mostly in the 20s and 40s. It’s flat and choppy. There is no standout, no hidden gem, no window of hope in this 16-day run. It’s a true blank period for the area, and that’s just how it goes sometimes.
Stay patient, check back in a few days, and maybe the forecasts will change for the better.
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.
