The Lowdown

G’day, Rusty here.

Look, I’ve been staring at the charts for Spanish House, and it’s a tough run ahead. We’ve got a full two weeks of pretty ordinary conditions before anything remotely worth paddling out for shows up. The first week is basically a write-off—small, weak swell with the wind mostly on it or cross-on, and the wave comment is consistently “poor surf conditions” right through to the end of August. There’s a blip of glassy conditions on the morning of Wednesday the 2nd of September, with a modest 2ft easterly swell and a period of 13 seconds, which gives it a bit of shape, but the combined swell energy is still moderate at 167, and the comment says “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions” – it’s a glimmer, not a goer.

The real standout, what’s actually worth your time, arrives on Thursday the 3rd of September. Spanish House finally gets a clean look. We’ve got a 3ft easterly swell, period hanging at a solid 12 seconds, and the wind swings to a light cross-off from the southwest, keeping it clean. The combined swell energy climbs to 239 in the morning and 296 in the afternoon – that’s moderate, pushing towards strong, and the wave comment is “expect good surf conditions” with a score of 2. This is the pick of the whole 16-day window. The swell direction (E) is a bit off the optimum NNE for this sandbar, but with the period and the clean wind, it’ll still offer up some fun, lined-up waves. For beginners, 3ft is right in the sweet spot, and the water temp is around 86° with a 1° anomaly, so it’s pretty average for the time of year – warm and comfortable.

Friday the 4th of September holds up too, with similar 3ft swell and a period of 12 seconds, combined energy at 308 in the morning. The wind is a cross-off from the WSW, but there’s a risk of thunderstorms, and the comment drops to “marginal,” so Thursday is definitely the day to aim for.

After that, the swell drops back through the weekend and into the following week, with the energy falling into the low 100s and the wave comments turning sour again. There’s a tiny, glassy chance on the morning of Sunday the 7th of September with 2ft and 11-second period, but the energy is only 185 and the comment is “surfable but very ordinary” – not worth the hype.

So, to put it straight: there’s no surf worth talking about until the end of the first week. The only real standout is Thursday the 3rd of September. Mark it in your calendar. The rest of the run, especially with that easterly swell coming straight in and the wind often on it, might actually look more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing if you’re into that.

Stay patient, check the charts close to the day, and I’ll catch you next time.

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.
