The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s break down what’s coming for Condos. The next couple of weeks are looking pretty rough – a long stretch of tiny, weak wind swell with bumpy conditions, and it’s not until we get into the second week that we finally see a flicker of hope.
The whole run kicks off with a sad little swell on Sunday, 23 August. We’re talking tiny 2ft from the SSE with a period of only 4 seconds. The combined energy is just a whisper at 14. The wind is a light cross-onshore, so it’s bumpy and poor. This same story repeats day after day through the end of August and into the first week of September. Winds are mostly cross-onshore, the swell sits around 2ft to 3ft, and the period stays short. The energy is weak, mostly in the teens or low 30s. It’s pretty much a write-off for any decent surfing.
The water temp is sitting at 85°F with a 1° anomaly, which is about average for this time of year, so at least you won’t freeze while you’re sitting there waiting for nothing.
There’s a gap of about 12 days of poor surf before we finally see a bit of a pulse. The standout moment, and honestly the only one worth mentioning, comes on the morning of Saturday, 5 September. We’ve got a slight bump in swell to 4ft from the SSE with a period of 6 seconds. The combined energy finally climbs to 77. What really makes this session pop is the wind: it’s glassy. That’s right, glassy. For a spot that’s been battered by cross-onshore slop, this is a proper treat. The water will be clean, and the waves will be surfable, even if it’s still fairly ordinary. After that, conditions get a bit dicey again with onshore winds, but then Sunday morning, 6 September, shows another chance with 3ft from the SE and a gentle offshore wind from the W, keeping things clean. The energy is moderate at 105, so you’ll feel a bit more push. Then Monday morning, 7 September, is glassy again with 3ft from the SE. So the second weekend and start of the next week are the only real windows.
All in all, it’s a long, flat wait. But when that glassy morning hits on the 5th, it’ll be worth dragging the board out for a paddle.
Stay keen.
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.
