Alright, Rusty here again, same outlook but in feet.
Honestly, things are looking pretty flat and quiet for a good stretch. We’ve got a long gap of nothing special on the cards. The first chance of anything worth paddling out for won’t show up until the morning of Friday, 17th July.
Spanish House
Let’s start with the only break we’ve got to look at – Spanish House. It’s an exposed sandbar, and it’s inconsistent, so it takes a solid push of swell to get it going. For most of the forecast, it’s been a write-off. Tiny waves, weak energy, and tricky winds.
On the morning of Friday, 17th July, we finally see a slight bump. The swell height lifts to about 2ft from the S, with a short period of 5 seconds. The combined swell energy is weak at 42. It’s a clean morning though, with light cross-offshore winds from the SSW. That’ll keep the surface smooth. But with such a short period swell and small size, it’s going to be weak, crumbly, and hard to get a decent ride. Not a standout.
By the afternoon of that same Friday, a different pulse shows up: about 3ft from the SE, still only 5 seconds period. The energy climbs to 63 – still weak. Winds swing onshore from the SE at 25 km/h, so it’ll be choppy and messy. This isn’t good for a paddle; it’s more of a kite-surfing sort of setup if you’re into that.
After that, it drops back down to tiny mush for the rest of the outlook, with no real improvement. A few clean mornings here and there during the second week – like Sunday the 19th, and Monday the 20th – but the swell is just a pathetic 1ft. Not worth getting wet for.
If you’re a beginner wanting to mess around on a foamie in knee-high slop, maybe there’s something on that Friday the 17th morning. But for anyone else? This is a long, quiet run. We do get periods of light cross-off winds and clean surfaces late in the run – like on Thursday the 23rd – but with no size to back it up. Hopefully, the forecasts shift as we get closer.
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.
