The Lowdown
Right, let’s get real. Spanish House is looking like a long, quiet stretch. The first chance of anything worth paddling out for ain’t until August 19th, and even then, it’s nothing to write home about. You’re looking at a solid 13-day gap with no real surf.
The water’s running a bit colder than usual for August, about 82°F.
When the swell finally tries to show up on the morning of Wednesday the 19th, we’ve got a tiny 2ft bump from the east. The wind is light and cross-offshore from the SSW, which keeps it clean, but the combined energy is weak. The period is a short 9 seconds, so there’s no real push. This spot is a sandbar that’s inconsistent and rarely breaks, so don’t get your hopes up. It’s a beginner-friendly wave, but this is barely surfable.
Then on the morning of Thursday the 20th, we finally get a little blip. The swell picks up to 3ft from the ESE, with a 10-second period. The wind goes glassy, calm, and the combined energy hits moderate. This is the best we’ve got. It’s clean, but still small. And remember, this spot is inconsistent, so if it’s breaking, it’s a treat.
Friday the 21st morning is similar – glassy with 2ft from the east, but the energy drops back down. Clean, but small.
So, the standout window is the morning of Thursday the 20th. That’s your best bet. It’s clean, the swell is around waist-high, and it’s the most energy we’ll see. But it’s far from a classic. For the rest of it, you’re better off checking the forecast again later.

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.
