The Lowdown
Alright folks, it's Rusty here. Let's have a look at the charts for the next couple of weeks. I gotta be straight with you, it's a bit of a tough stretch for surfers. The finder didn't kick out a single recommendation for the whole 16-day window, so we're looking at a long, blank run. This is more normal for the area, but it's still a bummer.
The only spot on the radar is Condos, a beginner-friendly break that's fairly consistent. The water temp is sitting at 84°F, which is bang on average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
We start off Friday afternoon, August 7th, with a tiny 2ft swell from the SE. The wind is howling onshore at 12 mph, so it's a write-off. Saturday the 8th starts with a bit of hope – a glassy 3 mph wind out of the east, but the swell is still a pathetic 2ft on a short 5-second period. The combined energy is a measly 19, so there's just nothing to work with. It's a classic case of "poor surf conditions."
The whole first week is plagued by moderate to fresh cross-onshore winds, choppy water, and that same weak, short-period swell. The heights bob around between 1ft and 4ft, but the energy stays low, never breaking into triple digits until August 19th. Even when the combined energy hits 106 on Wednesday morning, August 19th, the wind is a fresh 19 mph cross-onshore, making it a lumpy mess. The swell period is still a short 6 seconds, so it's just not going to form any kind of decent wave.
The best you could hope for, and I'm stretching here, is maybe a sneaky session on the morning of Saturday, August 22nd. The wind drops to a light 6 mph, but the swell is down to 2ft and the energy is only 19. It's not going to be a proper surf, more like a paddle with a tiny bump. Honestly, for this entire 16-day stretch, there's nothing that stands out. The setup with the wind and small, weak swell looks more interesting for a kite surfer than a paddle surfer.
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.
