The Lowdown
Alright, let’s talk about Spanish House. It’s a sandbar spot that gets the swell, but for the next couple of weeks, it’s a total bummer.
From Tuesday the 15th all the way through to Monday the 28th of September, it’s flat or near-flat. The waves are tiny, barely a foot or two, with short-period, weak energy. The wind is almost always side-shore or onshore, wrecking the surface. It’s all poor surf conditions. The water temp is about 85°, which is normal for the season – not worth mentioning.
That’s a solid two-week gap with nothing to surf.
On the 30th of September, we finally get something. Wednesday morning shows a 8ft swell from the NE with a 9-second period and strong energy. The wind is a light side-onshore, so it’ll be a little lumpy. At 8ft, this is big and meant for experienced surfers only. The period is short, so the waves will be powerful but crumbly. That afternoon, it jumps to 10ft from the NE with a 10-second period and very strong energy, with a light onshore wind. This is expert-only territory – serious size.
Honestly, this whole stretch looks better for kite surfing than paddle surfing, given the constant side-onshore winds and then that big, junky swell. The only real standout is the morning of the 30th of September. It’s a powerful, chunky wave, but it’s not going to be clean. That’s your only shot at any real size in the whole 16-day window.

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.
