The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what Spanish House is cookin' up over the next couple of weeks.
To be straight with you, it’s a pretty lean run for this spot. We've got a long stretch ahead where the conditions just aren't cooperating. The first real chance to get wet doesn't come until Sunday morning, September 13th, but honestly, it's not much to write home about.
So for Sunday the 13th, we've got a tiny 2ft easterly swell rolling in, but the real story is the complete lack of wind. It’s glassy, dead calm. The water is sitting at 85°, which is pretty normal for this time of year. The combined energy is a weak 41, so it's small and a bit gutless, but at least it's clean. The waves are surfable but very ordinary. After that, things go downhill fast. The afternoon brings an onshore easterly, and from Monday the 14th right through to Monday the 21st of September, it's a desert. The wind is a mess – cross-on, onshore, and gusty – and the swell is tiny. It's a full eight-day stretch with nothing worth paddling out for.
We finally get a little flicker of hope on Tuesday the 22nd. The morning shows a glassy, clean window with a light SSW cross-offshore breeze. The swell is still only 3ft from the ENE, but the combined energy jumps to 164 (moderate). It's surfable, but still very ordinary. The afternoon ruins it again with an onshore breeze.
Through the rest of the month and into the start of the following week, we see the swell size building. From Wednesday the 23rd, we're looking at waves between 5ft and 7ft, with some solid energy readings – 442, 496, 507 – which is strong. But here's the kicker: every single session has a cross-on or cross-shore wind from the NE or NNE, and the period is a short, choppy 7-8 seconds. The combined energy is high, but the quality is described as poor, with lumpy, choppy conditions. This is one of those setups that looks far more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. The winds are strong and the waves are messy.
There is no standout session in this entire 16-day window. The only two sessions that even score a 1 out of 10 are the glassy Sunday morning on the 13th and the clean Tuesday morning on the 22nd. Everything else is a zero. If you're desperate for a paddle, the glassy windows are your only hope, but don't expect any power or shape.
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.
