The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you – this 16-day window for Spanish House is a tough one. There’s just no good surf to speak of. The swell is tiny, often onshore, and the energy is weak. We’re looking at a long stretch of mostly flat, messy conditions where the board’s gonna feel more like a paddleboard than a surfboard.

Starting from Wednesday the 26th of August, it’s a no-go. Tiny 1 ft swell from the east, cross-onshore wind, and the combined energy is a measly 18 (very weak). Thursday isn’t any better, with the swell dropping to 0.7 ft. Friday the 28th morning, we get a tiny bit of hope – glassy conditions, 1 ft from the east, but the energy is still poor at 41 and the period is short (9 seconds). It’s surfable but very ordinary.

From there, it’s a long slog. Saturday the 29th through to the end of the first week stays poor, with the swell hovering around 1 ft to 3 ft, but the wind is almost always onshore or cross-onshore, ruining any chance of a clean wave. The energy stays under 100 for most of it. The water temperature is about average for the time of year, nothing unusual.

Heading into the second week, we see a slight bump in energy on Wednesday the 2nd of September – combined energy hits 113 (moderate) with a 2 ft swell from the east and a period of 12 seconds, which is a nice long period. But the wind is onshore or cross-onshore, so the waves would be a choppy mess. Thursday the 3rd also sees moderate energy at 126, with 3 ft swell, but again, onshore wind. The swell is too short in period for beach breaks anyway, and with the wind, it’s just not worth it.

The best of a bad bunch would be the morning of Friday the 28th of August. The glassy conditions are a major positive, but the swell is tiny (1 ft) and weak. It’s the only time the wind is truly clean, but the waves are basically non-existent. For a beginner, it might be a fun paddle, but for anyone wanting a proper wave, it’s a pass.

Honestly, this is a classic blank run for Spanish House. It’s an inconsistent, exposed sandbar that needs a lot more energy and better wind alignment to fire. The long period swell we see in early September is a tease, but the onshore wind kills it. The setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing on most days, with that cross-onshore wind and choppy surface.

Don’t lose hope though – forecasts can change, and it can’t stay this poor forever.

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.
