Table - best surf conditions forecast for Spanish House over the next 16 days.
G'day, Rusty here. Look, I've had a good look at what's on offer and to be straight with you, this is a tough stretch. Over the next couple of weeks there's just nothing that's going to get the blood pumping. We’re tracking a long window where the surf will be flat to tiny. There are gaps of several days where there's simply no recommendation to paddle out.
The first glimmer is around Wednesday, July 15th at Spanish House. It's a sandbar break, so it's pretty exposed to any swell that rolls in. The water temp here is sitting about 84°, which is right on the money for this time of year. Wednesday morning we've got a tiny bit of energy, with a combined energy of only 43 (weak). That's a 1ft swell from the ESE, with a period of 8 seconds. It's tiny, but the wind is glassy, so it'll be clean. It's rated as beginner-friendly, which is about right for these sorts of ankle-biters. This spot is inconsistent, so you can't rely on it at all.
Honestly, that's the 'best' of a very poor bunch, and I'm saying that with a heavy heart. For the rest of the 16-day run, you're looking at scraps – generally 1.0ft, with offshore and glassy conditions here and there, but the wave quality is just poor. Nothing has any push. The swell direction is mostly out of the ESE, and the optimum for this break is NNE, so it's not even hitting it right. The combined swell energy barely breaks 30 most days, so it's all weak, wind-swell junk.
If you're desperate for a paddle, Wednesday morning the 15th might give you a clean, slow wave, but don't expect anything more. After that, it stays tiny and ordinary right through to the end of July. For kite surfing, with the cross-onshore breezes in the afternoons and the tiny, gutless surf, you might find more entertainment than us surfers will.
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.
