The Lowdown
Alright, let's get into it. This is your local surf outlook here, this is Rusty talking.
Right off the bat, we've got a bit of a wild ride ahead. The first few days are looking pretty average, but the middle of the week swings around with some real potential. The water’s sitting at 67° at Pea Break, which is a touch warmer than usual for this time of year, so you might not even need the full wetsuit.
We kick off Thursday the 16th with a solid 10-foot WSW swell rolling in, but it's coming from the SSW at 12 mph, so it's a cross-off wind. It's a bit messy, and the energy is strong (3611), but it's not clean enough to get excited about. Friday the 17th is a write-off with rain and onshore winds packing a punch; the swell is there but it's just poor.
Saturday the 18th is the first big one to watch out for, but not for the right reasons. The swell is pumping up to 18 feet from the WSW with a massive 13-second period. The energy is crazy high (9911), but the wind is a fresh cross-onshore at 22 mph. This is going to be a lumpy, blown-out mess. Honestly, if you're into kite surfing, this setup is going to be way more interesting than trying to paddle out. That's a pass for us.
The real window opens up on Wednesday the 22nd. The afternoon session is the standout. We’ve got a clean 12-foot swell from the SW with a 14-second period, and the wind is from the SE at 16 mph, whipping in offshore. That's the magic combo. The energy is massive (4803), and the face is going to be groomed and perfect for experienced surfers. This is your best bet for the whole period. A bit of a standout, but it's an advanced wave, so be ready.
Thursday the 23rd is still good, but the magic is gone. The swell drops to 10 feet and the wind is a clean cross-off from the ESE, so it's still surfable, just not as epic.
The second week... there's some swell in the water, but it's smaller and the wind is all over the place. The biggest issue is the wind on the 28th and 29th is mostly onshore or cross-onshore, making it choppy and ugly. The 30th of July has a big 12-foot SW swell with an 18-second period and a strong cross-off wind, but it’s a long way out and the wind forecast is shaky. It’s a promising one to keep an eye on, but nothing to set your alarm for yet.
All in all, mark your calendar for Wednesday the 22nd. That's the session.
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.
