The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at the 16-day window for Spanish House.
Right off the bat, I’ve gotta be straight with you – this stretch is a tough one. We’re looking at a long, quiet run with hardly any real surf to get excited about. The first recommendation doesn’t even pop up until Sunday the 26th of July, and even then, it’s small stuff. For the first few days, we’re stuck with onshore winds and tiny, weak waves so don’t bother paddling out until then.
The best we’ve got over the whole period is a couple of moments that are just barely surfable. On Sunday the 26th of July, we finally see a bit of a shift. The wind goes offshore out of the west at 9 mph, cleaning things right up. The swell is a tiny 2 ft out of the east, with a short period of 8 seconds, and combined energy is weak (43). It’s flat, but the offshore wind makes it clean enough for a beginner to get a few soft, crumbly rides. The afternoon holds similar – 2 ft, light offshore breeze, and a clean surface. It’s ordinary, but it’s the best we’ll see for a while.
Then there’s a small blip on Saturday the 1st of August. The morning is still tiny (1 ft) with offshore wind, but the afternoon throws up a bit of a surprise: 4 ft out of the SE, but with a period of just 4 seconds – that’s pure wind chop, no real push. The combined energy is weak (40) and it’s glassy, so if you’re desperate for a splash, you could mess around, but it’s not proper surf.
Other than that, it’s a whole lot of nothing. The swell is consistently under 3 ft, mostly from the east, and the period never gets above 9 seconds. The water temperature is sitting at 83° – that’s about 2° cooler than normal, so nothing unusual for the time of year.
Honestly, Spanish House is a sandbar that’s inconsistent, and this 16-day window shows that. The setup is small, weak, and often blown out. For a beginner with a foamie, Sunday the 26th of July or the glassy afternoon of August 1st might be worth a look, but don’t expect much. If the wind holds offshore on those tiny days, you could get a few, but it’s a real struggle.
Keep your eyes on the forecasts – it’s not often this poor, so it could turn around.
Rusty.

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.
