Table - best surf conditions forecast for Spanish House over the next 16 days.
G'day, Rusty here, and I gotta be straight with you – the surf outlook for Spanish House over the next 16 days is a tough one. We're looking at a long, dry spell with no decent waves on the cards. The swell is just too small and weak to get any enthusiasm going, and the wind is often working against us.
From now through to the end of July, this stretch of coast is going to be pretty flat. We're talking about a solid run of days with absolutely nothing worth paddling out for. The swell heights are hanging around 1 to 2 feet, and the period is mostly short, under 8 seconds, which means the waves will be weak and messy. The combined swell energy is consistently low, often in the teens or twenties – that's barely a ripple.
There's a brief moment on Monday, July 20th where the morning shows a little bump with 2-foot swell from the SE and a gentle offshore wind, but the period is a tiny 4 seconds. That's just wind chop with no push. It's a flat spell, plain and simple.
The water temperature is sitting at 84°F with a anomaly of -0.7°F, so it's pretty much average for this time of year. Not that it'll matter much when you're standing on the sand.
If you're looking for something to do, the wind on the 20th and 21st of July is blowing from the WSW and SW at 9 mph, which is cross-offshore. Combined with the tiny, short-period swell, it might be more of a kite surfing situation than a paddle surfing one. But for a surf, it's a no-go.
This is a classic example of a blank run that's normal for this area. The consistency is listed as "inconsistent," and the forecast is bearing that out. It's a tough pill to swallow, but we just have to wait for a better system to roll through. Forecasts can change, but for now, save the gas.
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.
