The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming our way for Pea Break.
First up, we’ve got a real slow start. The first few days are a write-off for any decent paddle surfing. Wednesday the 29th and Thursday the 30th are a mess – bumpy, choppy, and just not worth suiting up for. Friday the 31st isn't much better with a strong onshore hammering a 10ft to 12ft SW swell. The energy is massive, hitting 4712 to 6222, but it’s just a blown-out mess.
Then the weekend flips the script. The real standout is Saturday, August 1st at Pea Break. This is where it gets special. We’ve got a solid 15ft SW groundswell rolling in with a 15-second period, packing a ton of energy (8010 to 8970). And the wind? Moderate offshore all day, keeping it clean and lined up. This is a serious, expert-only wave. The water temp is about average for the time of year, nothing unusual there. If you’ve got the skill, this is the day to be out there.
Sunday, August 2nd, is still a good call. The swell drops to 10ft in the morning and then 8ft in the afternoon. The afternoon session is the pick with glassy conditions and clean lines off that SW swell. The wave energy is still strong at 2456. It’s big enough for experienced surfers, but not as punishing as Saturday.
After that, the week gets a bit messy again. Monday and Tuesday stay mediocre with cross-shore winds and lumpy conditions. The swell is still there, but the quality drops off. By Wednesday the 5th and Thursday the 6th, we see another pulse of bigger SW swell (12ft to 13ft), and the wind is more favourable, giving us some clean sets. The energy on Thursday morning is huge at 9387, but it’s a marginal call for most.
Looking further out, the second week is a wildcard. The models are showing some serious size, but it’s all wind-affected. Friday the 7th through Tuesday the 12th sees a lot of strong to gale-force winds, and the swell is absolutely pumping – sometimes over 20ft and energy readings over 16000. That’s kite-surfing territory, not a clean paddle session. A few windows might open, but it’s a "watch the forecast" kind of situation.
So, bottom line: Saturday, August 1st is your absolute best bet for a powerful, clean, expert session. Sunday afternoon is a close second for a slightly less heavy but still clean wave. The rest of the window is a mixed bag of size and wind.
Stay sharp, and I’ll see you in the water.
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.
