Updates in hr min s Forecast update imminent
Alright folks, Rusty here. Gotta be straight with you – it’s lookin’ bleak out there for the next couple of weeks at Spanish House. We’re smack in the middle of a flat spell, and honestly, there’s hardly a ripple worth paddlin’ for.
The Full Picture
From now right through to July 20th, we are in a real dry patch. The swell is tiny, mostly coming in from the ESE at around 1 to 2 feet with a short, weak period of 7 to 9 seconds. The combined energy is barely registering, with the highest reading we get being a measly 82 (moderate wave energy) on July 10th, but even that comes with a cross-onshore breeze that chops it up. The water is a balmy 83°F, which is pretty average for this time of year, so at least it’ll feel nice just sitting out there.
The wind is all over the shop, mostly onshore or cross-shore, so conditions are generally messy. There’s a couple of glassy mornings on July 7th, 9th, and the 10th, but even then the surf is just too small and weak to do anything with. It’s a long stretch of nothing, really – from the 5th right through to the 20th, every single slot is marked as "poor surf conditions." That’s two whole weeks of disappointments.
The Best of a Bad Bunch
If you’re absolutely desperate to get wet, maybe take a peek at Thursday morning, July 9th. Early doors you’ve got glassy conditions with a light southerly breeze, and the swell might just be 2 feet from the east with a slightly better 9-second period. The energy is still weak (42), and the guide says it’s "surfable waves but very ordinary conditions." It is not good, but it’s the least bad option. Friday morning, July 10th, is similar – glassy with a 2-foot swell from the ESE, but again, it’s weak and ordinary.
Honestly, don’t get your hopes up. This is a proper lull. The wind and swell just aren’t lining up to give us anything worth paddling for. It’s a good time to wax your board and wait for a better forecast.
Stay patient, 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.
