The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here, let's get into it. The coming weeks start off rough at Pea Break, but there are a couple of windows that could be worth your while for the experienced crew.

The first few days are a write-off. The swell is there but the wind has got it all chewed up. Saturday the 12th and Sunday the 13th of September are a full-on mess with onshore and cross-onshore winds wrecking the 10ft to 12ft of groundswell. Just stay on the couch.

Things finally turn on Monday the 14th of September. A proper groundswell from the SW rolls in at 12ft with a long 14-second period, and the wind goes gently offshore (ESE then SSE). The combined wave energy is strong (5140 on Monday morning). The sets will be clean with good shape. This is for experienced surfers only; that size is no joke for the average Joe. The water temp is about 64°, which is pretty normal for this time of year.

Tuesday the 15th of September is still decent with 10ft of SW groundswell (14-second period) and clean conditions on the offer, though the wind is more cross-off shore, so not as perfect as Monday.

The middle of the week drops off. Wednesday the 16th drops to 6ft and you’ve got a messy cross-shore wind messing things up. Thursday the 17th is onshore rubbish.

There is then a stormy patch late in the week. The 18th of September (Friday) has a near-gale hitting the place, with 34 mph cross-shore winds combining with 10ft of lumpy swell. This is kite-surfing territory, not for a paddle board.

The weekend and early the next week are a wash, with the swell staying big (10ft–13ft) but the wind not doing any favors, leaving it all a bit lumpy and marginal. It looks poor and messy until the next major window.

Now, the standout that has me excited is Thursday the 24th of September, just over a week away. We’re looking at a massive, very long-period groundswell from the WSW hitting 17ft with a 17-second to 18-second period. The combined wave energy is extreme (17152 on that morning). Now, the wind is a cross-offshore breeze from the S, so Pea Break might get a bit of a chop, but the swell size and period are monstrous. This is strictly for the hardcore crew. It’s a powerful, unruly slab at that size. Given the long period, it will be ripping through the reef. Crowds are *sometimes* an issue here, but on a 17ft day at a reef break, only the brave will be out.

Thursday the 25th of September is also excellent, with the size dropping to a still-solid 12ft (WSW) but with a gentle offshore SE wind giving you glassy, clean conditions. This is a high-quality option for the experienced surfer.

After that, the swell backs off to the 7ft range into the final weekend, with the wind turning tricky again, so the run fizzles out. The Monday the 14th and Thursday the 24th are the two true standouts here, with the 24th being the absolute monster of the window.

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.
