The Lowdown
Alright, I’m looking at the next 16 days and it’s a real bummer. There’s no surf worth talking about at Spanish House. The swell never gets above a pitiful 5ft, and the wind is always onshore or side-shore, ruining any chance of a clean wave. The whole period is a total washout.
The first few days from Thursday the 10th through the weekend are rubbish. Tiny, weak swell under 2ft, with cross-onshore winds and the wave energy is barely getting out of the 30s or 40s. It’s flat and choppy.
We get a bit more size around the 16th to the 17th, with swell pushing 4ft to 4ft from the east, but it’s still onshore, and the period is a terrible 5 to 6 seconds. That’s just a messy, close-out mess.
The only tiny glimmer comes on the morning of Friday the 18th of September. The wind goes glassy for a moment with a 2ft swell from the east, but it’s still a weak wave. The report says it’s just “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions.” Not worth the effort.
From the 19th onward, it’s a long stretch of tiny swell and crummy wind. The water is about 83°F, which is normal for the time of year, so you’re not going to need a thick wetsuit, but you’ll be staring at a flat ocean.
The only time the wave energy gets moderate is on the 22nd and 23rd, hitting values between 178 and 223. But the wind is howling up to 22 mph, and the swell is short-period. For a beach setup like this, that’s a kite-surfing day, not a day for a surfboard.
Honestly, this is a blank run. It’s not unusual for the area to have long stretches with nothing on offer. Sometimes the forecasts shift, but as it stands, I’d leave the board at home.

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.
