Table - best surf conditions forecast for Spanish House over the next 16 days.
Alright folks, Rusty here. Gonna be straight with you – this 16-day window for Spanish House is looking pretty grim. We’ve got a long stretch of flatness and choppy junk ahead, so don’t get your hopes up.
The first week and a half is basically a write-off. From Thursday the 9th to Tuesday the 15th, we’re looking at tiny, weak swell – mostly 2ft to 3ft – with a short period, poor energy (mostly under 50), and winds that are cross, cross-on, or onshore. It’s messy, it’s small, and it’s not worth paddling out for. Expect a solid gap of about 6 days with no real recommendations.
Now, there is one tiny glimmer. Wednesday morning, the 15th of July. The wind goes glassy, absolute perfection. The swell bumps up to a tiny 2ft from the NE, with a period of 8 seconds. The energy is still weak (75), but that glassy surface would make it rideable. If you’re a beginner, that’s your window for a few fun, clean little waves. But it’s inconsistent here, so don’t bank on a set every minute.
The rest of the run is more of the same: small, weak, and wind-affected. The only other half-decent moment is Monday morning the 20th of July, where we get a clean 2ft from the NE with a 6-second period and offshore wind. It’s better than nothing, but that period is so short the waves will be weak and crumbly.
Honestly, for a sandbar that’s exposed and inconsistent, this is a pretty typical blank run. The water temp is about average for the time of year, so no surprises there. Don’t force it. Wait for the forecast to change.
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.
