The Lowdown
Alright, I’m looking at the charts for the next 16 days at Spanish House, and I gotta be straight with you—it’s pretty grim. This is a sandbar setup that’s exposed, and it wants swell from the NNE, but we’re not getting any of that. What we’ve got is a long stretch of tiny, weak waves and plenty of wind that’s just not lining up right.
There’s a big gap of nothing worth paddling out for. The first week and a half is basically a write-off. From July 28th right through to August 4th, every session is scored as poor surf conditions. Swell heights are just 0.7 ft to 2 ft—ankle to knee-high at best. The combined wave energy is weak, lingering in the teens and twenties (23 to 47), which is barely a ripple. The swell period is short, around 8 to 10 seconds, so it’s all windswell junk. Winds are often cross-off or cross-onshore, which is not doing us any favours. The water is a bit colder than normal for this time of year at 83°F.
The first tiny glimmer of hope comes on the morning of Wednesday, August 5th. It’s not a good day, but it’s the only one that scrapes a "surfable" rating. Swell height is 2 ft from the ESE, with a period of 8 seconds, and the combined energy is 50—still weak. The wind is glassy, dead calm, which is a major positive for clean faces. But the waves are tiny and the conditions are “very ordinary.” It’s a beginner-level wave at best, but at least you won’t be fighting the wind. This is the only real standout in the entire run, and it’s a small one.
After that, it’s back to poor conditions. The morning of Sunday, August 9th, goes glassy with 1 ft from the E, but it’s still poor surf. The morning of August 10th has glassy conditions with just 0.7 ft.
So, here’s the bottom line: if you’re desperate for a paddle, the morning of Wednesday, August 5th is your only shot. Otherwise, this is a long, flat spell. Spanish House is inconsistent at the best of times, and right now, the ocean is just not playing ball. Keep an eye on the charts, things can change, but for now, it’s a waiting game.

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.
