The Lowdown
Right, mate, Rusty here. Let’s have a honest look at the charts for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it’s a grim stretch for Spanish House. The whole 16-day window is a write-off for any decent surf. You’re looking at a solid two-week gap where there’s just nothing worth paddling out for. The swell is tiny, mostly ankle to knee high, with a few rare pulses that barely reach waist high, but the wind and general conditions ruin any chance of a wave.
The best of a very bad bunch is Friday morning, 24 July. There’s a tiny 2 ft swell from the east with a period of 8 seconds, and the wind goes glassy. It’s the only time the water is smooth, and the combined energy of all swells directed here is a weak 45. It’s surfable, but you’d be scratching for scraps. The water temperature is about average for this time of year.
Every other day is a mix of cross-shore, cross-onshore, or onshore winds, with a strong choppy surface. The swell direction is mostly from the east or southeast, which is no good for this spot – it needs a north-northeast swell to work properly. The break is inconsistent and exposed, and with the swell so small and the period so short, you’d be fighting for nothing.
If you’ve got a kite, the onshore winds on some afternoons might give you something to do, but for a surfboard, don’t bother. The setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. Forecasts can change, but for now, it’s a flat, frustrating blank run.
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.
