The Lowdown

Alright, let’s get into it.

We're looking at a solid run of groundswell headed for Pea Break, but this isn't a spot for the feint-hearted. This is a reef break for advanced surfers only, and the opening days of September are going to serve up some serious power. The water temp is sitting at a pretty normal 65° for this time of year, nothing wild there. The big story is the long-period SW swell that's about to march through.

Monday the 7th kicks off with a bang. Morning session sees a clean 12 ft SW swell with a 16-second period, and light SE offshore winds. The combined energy is massive at 6018 (moderate to strong energy), making for powerful, lined-up waves. This is expert territory, no question. The afternoon takes a turn though; wind swings south and picks up to 19 mph, turning it cross-offshore. It stays clean but the wind bump makes it a bit more of a handful. Still plenty of size.

Tuesday the 8th is the real standout. The swell bumps up to a solid 13 ft from the SW in the morning, 16-second period, and while the wind is cross-off from the ESE at 16 mph, the energy reading is a massive 8050 (strong to very strong energy). This is a heavy day. The afternoon eases slightly to 12 ft but the wind drops to a gentle 9 mph from the ENE, still cross-off and clean. These two windows are the best on offer, but it's strictly for the experienced crew.

Wednesday the 9th holds size but the wind gets messy. A 10 ft morning swell with 15-second period gets hit by a fresh 22 mph ENE cross-off, making it a bit of a battle. Energy is still high at 3750 (moderate to strong). Afternoon drops to 8 ft but with lighter wind, still cross-off. It's surfable but not the gem of the week.

Thursday the 10th sees the swell dip to around 6 ft to 7 ft. The morning is a write-off with a messy cross-shore wind. But the afternoon is a magic window – glassy conditions with a light NNE breeze, a 7 ft SW groundswell at 15 seconds. The energy is 1937 (moderate). This is cleaner and more manageable, but still a proper reef wave.

Then we hit a rough patch. From Friday the 11th right through to the end of the second week, the wind turns against us. Onshore, cross-onshore, and strong winds dominate. The swell stays solid, sometimes pushing over 10 ft and even hitting 13 ft again, but the wind just wrecks the surface. Saturday the 12th is a no-go with 25 mph cross-onshore winds. Sunday the 13th is rain and wind. It's a long wait.

There are a few glimmers. Monday the 14th afternoon goes glassy with a 10 ft SW swell, and Tuesday the 15th morning is also glassy with a 10 ft swell. Those are clean windows but the surrounding conditions are poor, so it’s a gamble on the long-range forecast holding.

Later on, Thursday the 17th sees a massive 16 ft SW swell with a 16-second period and very high energy at 11102 (strong to very strong energy), but the cross-shore wind will make it a washing machine. That’s big-wave territory only, and it looks like a kite-surfing day rather than a paddle session.

So to sum it up: for the experienced surfer, the window is Monday the 7th through Tuesday the 8th. Tuesday morning is the absolute standout for size, power, and clean conditions. After that, it’s a waiting game for the glassy pockets later in the fortnight. Don’t expect beginners to have any fun here – the swell is too big and the wave is too mean.

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.
