The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at what’s on offer for the next couple of weeks.
Well, I’m gonna be straight with you – this is a tough one. We’re looking at a long, dry stretch with next to nothing to get excited about. The first recommendation I can give you isn't until Sunday the 26th of July, and even then, it’s barely a whisper. We’ve got a solid gap of about a week from now with poor surf conditions and scores that just don't cut it. The wind is messy, the swell is tiny, and it’s just not worth paddling out.
Spanish House is the only spot on the radar, and it’s an inconsistent sandbar that’s best for beginners. The water temp is about average for this time of year, nothing unusual there.
The first real glimpse of anything rideable shows up on the morning of Sunday, July 26th. We’ve got a tiny 2ft swell from the East, with a short 8-second period. The combined energy is weak (53). The wind is light and offshore from the WNW, which is a major positive – it’ll be clean. But the truth is, the wave quality is just “very ordinary.” It’s something to get wet on, but don’t expect much.
The next small window pops up on Tuesday morning, July 28th. The swell is still a meager 2ft from the East, but the wind is forecast to be glassy. That’s the best wind you can get. The energy is still weak (49), and the conditions are “very ordinary,” but if you’re desperate for a滑溜 session, that’s your best bet for a clean, slow wave.
Then we get a couple of mornings with offshore winds around Wednesday, July 29th and Thursday, July 30th. The swell stays tiny at 1ft to 2ft from the East. The energy is poor (55 and 37). The wind is solid offshore from the WSW and W, making it clean, but the wave size is just too small to do much on. It’s a long-period swell (8-9 seconds), but with that little height, it’s not going to offer much shape.
The outlook fades out after that, with the swell dropping to 1ft by Monday, August 3rd. Honestly, for the whole 16-day window, the standout is the clean conditions on the 28th, but it’s a very small standout. If you’re a beginner, the glassy morning on the 28th of July is your best bet for a harmless, clean paddle. For anyone else, this is a kite-surfing setup more than a paddle-surfing one, given the consistent onshore winds and small, weak swell.
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.
