The Lowdown

G’day, Rusty here. Let’s get straight into it. For Pea Break, we’ve got a decent run of surf on the horizon, but there’s a bit of a rocky start with plenty of wind messing things up early on.

The overall pattern shows a powerful, long-period SW groundswell pushing in over the next few days, but it’s going to take a while for the wind to play nice. The water’s sitting at 67°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so you won’t need the thickest wetsuit.

Sunday the 9th kicks off with a solid 16 ft SW swell (16-second period) and a huge combined energy reading of 12163 – that’s serious power. But that 25 km/h WSW cross-wind is making a mess of things, with a cross-chop. Not worth paddling out. The afternoon is even worse with rain and cross-onshore wind. A total write-off.

Monday the 10th is no good either – the swell holds around 15 ft to 16 ft, but we’ve got a near gale-strength cross-wind and then strong breeze, blowing the surface to bits. Forget it.

Now, Tuesday the 11th – this is where it gets interesting. Early morning sees a clean 18 ft SW swell (16 seconds) with a cross-offshore SSW breeze at 30 km/h. The energy is off the charts at 14678. This is a standout window for experienced surfers only – that size and power at a reef break like Pea Break is no joke. Conditions are clean, but you need to know what you’re doing. The afternoon drops a bit but stays solid at 16 ft.

Wednesday the 12th eases down to 12 ft with lighter winds, but there’s a cross-chop and the quality is only marginal. Nothing special.

Thursday the 13th is another real highlight. Morning comes in with 12 ft SW swell (16 seconds) and glassy conditions – that’s rare. Combined energy is still 6702. It says exceptional for expert surfers, and that’s exactly what it is. Clean, lined-up reef waves with that long period. Crowds are possible here, so get in early. The afternoon stays clean with a gentle cross-offshore breeze.

Friday the 14th offers more clean conditions, 12 ft in the morning with an ENE cross-offshore, then glassy in the afternoon with 10 ft. Excellent surf for experienced surfers, not quite a standout but very good.

Saturday the 15th things turn ugly – a big wind shift to northerly, 25-35 km/h cross-onshore, dropping to 8 ft and messy. Avoid.

Sunday the 16th through Tuesday the 18th sees the swell bouncing between 7 ft and 18 ft but with onshore or cross-onshore wind from the north and northwest, often strong. The waves will be lumpy, blown-out, and borderline dangerous. Kite surfers might have a ball here, but for paddle surfing, it’s a hard pass.

Wednesday the 19th and Thursday the 20th keep the swell big (13 ft to 18 ft) but with strong cross-onshore winds, making it a choppy mess.

Friday the 21st is another washout with near gale conditions.

Now we get to Saturday the 22nd – this is the best on offer in the whole forecast. Morning has a 13 ft SW swell (16 seconds) with a moderate offshore SE breeze at 25 km/h – clean, lined-up reef waves. The afternoon is even better: 13 ft SW, moderate offshore SE at 20 km/h, and the forecast says exceptional conditions for expert surfers. The combined energy is 8427. This is the pick of the entire 16 days. Crowds are possible, but with that size and offshore wind, the standouts will be worth the company.

Sunday the 23rd holds at 12 ft clean with light winds, still excellent for experienced surfers. Monday the 24th sees the swell fade to 8 ft with glassy afternoon conditions – a nice way to finish, but small.

Overall: the standout is Saturday the 22nd, with clean offshore conditions and solid groundswell. Thursday the 13th is another ripper with glassy waves. The rest has a lot of wind issues, but the core windows are worth planning around.

Rusty.

Information about the Pea Break Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for Pea Break provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Pea Break can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Pea Break 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 (Pea Break) 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 Pea Break 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.

Pea Break is 72 km (45 miles) from the city of Bunbury. If you plan a holiday in Margaret River, look for hotels and other accommodation in Bunbury. Bunbury has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
