The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's talk about what's coming up at Spanish House.
To be honest, this stretch is looking pretty flat and messy for the next couple of weeks. There's really not much to get excited about. We’ve got a long, quiet spell ahead with very little surf energy. The combined swell energy stays weak for most of the period, with values barely cracking triple digits, and even then, the conditions are poor.
We have to wait until Thursday the 10th of September for anything that could even be called surfable. The morning shows a tiny 2ft NE groundswell with a period of 10 seconds, but the combined swell energy is only 91 – that’s weak. The real highlight is the wind: it’s glassy, with an ENE breeze at just 3 mph. That will give the place a clean, smooth surface, but the waves themselves are small and weak. For absolute beginners on a longboard, it might be a fun splash-around session, but don't expect any real power.
After that, the outlook fades back to next to nothing. There are days with glassy conditions on Friday the 11th (1ft, 9s, calm wind) but again, it’s tiny. From there into the second week, we're looking at mostly onshore breezes and knee-high slop at best. A few mornings in the second week show light offshore or cross-off winds, but with swell heights lingering around 1ft to 2ft, it just won't have any push.
You could squint and say the 14th and 15th of September see some bump in energy – still only 2ft to 2ft – but the wind is cross-on and gusting to 12 mph, which will mess up the surface. The combined swell energy there hits the moderate 50s, but that's still not enough to overcome the chop.
So, what’s the call? Don't bother paddling out until Thursday the 10th morning. That's your one true standout, and even then, it's only for the clean conditions on a very small wave. The rest of the 16-day window is a write-off. It’s a long blank run, which isn’t unusual for an exposed sandbar like Spanish House that needs a specific swell to wake up.

Information about the Spanish House Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Spanish House provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Spanish House can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Spanish House 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 (Spanish House) 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 Spanish House 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.
Spanish House is 12 km (7 miles) from the city of Sebastian. If you plan a vacation in North Florida, look for hotels and other accommodation in Sebastian. Sebastian has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
