The Lowdown
Right then, let's have a look at what's on the cards for Spanish House over the next couple of weeks.
First off, I gotta be straight with you—the next few days are pretty grim. We're looking at a real dry spell here. From Monday the 31st of August, right through to the morning of Sunday the 6th of September, it's basically a write-off. Tiny, weak swell, nowhere near enough to get you out of bed. The wind is mostly cross or cross-onshore, chopping up whatever little bump there is. The combined energy is just a whisper, in the 14 to 83 range, so you're really not missing a thing.
Now, there's a little flicker of life on Monday the 7th of September afternoon. The swell bumps up a touch to 4ft from the NE, but with a short period of 7 seconds and a funky wind direction, it's still a messy affair. The combined energy hits 165 (moderate), but the conditions are just poor.
Things start to get a bit more interesting from Tuesday the 8th of September. We get a clean offshore wind from the W, and the swell is a consistent 4ft from the NE. The combined energy is up to 128 (moderate). It's surfable, but very ordinary. The morning of Wednesday the 9th of September is where it all comes together. The swell is 3ft from the ENE, but here's the kicker—the period jumps to 11 seconds, turning it into a proper little groundswell. The combined energy rockets to 231 (strong), and with a light offshore wind, the conditions are clean. This is the standout of the whole forecast. It's a sandbar break, so with that long period, it might not be a perfect barrel, but the shape should be there. The afternoon only gets better, with 3ft NE swell and 11-second period, pushing the energy to 280 (strong). For a beginner-friendly spot, this is a real treat.
After that, the swell drops off quickly. The rest of the week into the weekend sees the waves fade back to the 1.0ft to 2ft range, with poor conditions. The energy drops back into the double digits. There's a few glassy mornings on the 13th and 14th of September, but with next to no swell, it's just a flat, pretty lake.
So, to wrap it up: the first week is a total dud. Your only real window is Wednesday the 9th of September. That's your call. Get on it, because the swell doesn't look like it's coming back in any meaningful way after that.

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.
