The Lowdown

Alright mate, Rusty here. Let's get into it.

Honestly, it's a pretty grim stretch ahead for us. Looking at the entire 16-day window, there's just nothing happening that's worth paddling out for. The swell is tiny, the wind is consistently messy, and every single session gets a "poor surf conditions" tag. We're looking at a long dry spell with no real standout, so let's be straight about it.

Kicking off from Thursday, 20th August, through the whole weekend and into the following week, it's the same story. The swell is weak, with combined energy reading mostly between 10 and 30 – that's barely a ripple. The water temp at Condos is sitting at 85°F, which is about 2°F above normal, so it's a touch warmer than average for this time of year, but that's the only bright spot. The wind is almost always cross-onshore, blowing from the SE or SSE at 9 to 19 mph, keeping everything choppy and lumpy. The swell height is hovering around 2 ft to 3 ft, and with a period of just 4 to 5 seconds, it's weak, short-period windswell with no push.

Even into the last week of August and the first days of September, there's no improvement. The swell picks up just a hair to 3 ft by the 31st and 1st of September, but the wind gets stronger – fresh breezes up to 22 mph – so it's just more of the same messy, onshore slop. The combined energy climbs to around 80, still in the weak range, and the period stays stubbornly short at 5 to 6 seconds. There's no clean window, no glassy morning, no offshore flow. It's a total write-off for paddle surfing.

If you're desperate for something to do, the setup at Condos (a beach/reef mix) with that strong cross-onshore wind and building chop might be more interesting for kite surfing than trying to paddle out on a foam board. But for a proper surf? There's nothing here. It's a tough run, but that's how it goes sometimes – forecasts can change, so don't lose hope entirely.

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.
