The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you: the outlook for Condos over this 16-day stretch is a tough one. We’re looking at a long, dry spell with no real surf on offer until we get towards the very end. There’s nothing worth paddling out for from the start right through to the morning of Thursday, September 11th – that’s a gap of about two weeks where every single session is flagged as poor surf conditions. The swell just isn’t there. What little energy shows up is weak, with the combined energy of all swells directed here sitting in the low double digits (8–36), and the heights barely tickle 3ft at the best of times. It’s a real bummer.
The first glimmer of something actually rideable pops up on the morning of Friday, September 12th, at Condos. We get a small bump of swell from the SSE, pushing 3ft with a period of 5 seconds. It’s still not great, but it’s the most we’ve seen. The wind that morning is a cross-shore from the NNE at 12 mph, which is moderate and a bit choppy, and the combined energy climbs a little to 44. But let’s be honest, this is a marginal, soft wave. For a beginner break that’s fairly consistent, it’s something to sit on the board and rock about on, but don’t expect any barrels.
All in all, it’s a dry period for Condos. There is no standout, no classic day. The water temp is running about average for this time of year, so no surprises there. Hopefully the forecasts shift, because as it stands, it’s pretty bleak for the next couple of weeks.

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.
