The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here, let’s talk about what’s on the menu for Pea Break. This is your only real option for the next couple of weeks, so let’s make the most of it.

The first surf worth paddling out for kicks off this Friday afternoon, the 28th of August. We’ve got a solid SW groundswell running, with a 6ft swell and a period of 12 seconds. The wind is SSE at 12 mph, which is offshore and clean. The water is sitting at 64°, pretty much normal for this time of year. The combined energy is moderate, around 1016, but the conditions are set to be very good. This is a reef break for advanced surfers only, and it’s fairly consistent, so don’t expect a long wait between sets. Crowds are possible here, so keep an eye out.

Saturday morning, the 29th, sees a jump in size to 7ft, with a proper 16-second period groundswell from the SW. The wind is cross-off from the ESE at 16 mph, keeping it clean, but the score is a bit lower due to tide concerns. The afternoon is where it gets interesting – the swell pushes to 10ft, still from the SW, with a 17-second period. The wind shifts to a light NE breeze at 6 mph, cross-off, and the conditions are described as excellent for experienced surfers. The combined energy is strong at 4856. This is a standout window for the crew who can handle it.

Sunday, the 30th, keeps the size at 10ft, but the direction swings to WSW. The morning has a 17-second period and a NE cross-shore wind at 9 mph, but there’s a slight cross-chop. The afternoon sees the wind go light and onshore from the NW, which will mess with the face. The energy is still strong, but the quality drops.

Monday, the 31st, is a write-off. The wind is howling from the W at 16-25 mph, cross-on or cross-off, with rain in the afternoon. The swell is 7-8ft, but the conditions are poor. Don’t bother.

Tuesday, the 1st of September, the swell is back to 10ft from the WSW, with a 15-second period. The morning has a light WSW cross-shore wind, but the afternoon gets lumpy. It’s marginal.

The rest of the first week into September is a mix of big swell and ugly wind. Wednesday the 2nd and Thursday the 3rd have 10-12ft swell, but strong cross-onshore winds keep it messy. Friday the 4th is a disaster – 15ft of SW swell, but 25 mph cross-onshore winds and rain. That’s kite-surfing territory, not paddle surfing.

The next real hope comes on Saturday the 5th of September. The morning has a 12ft SW swell with a 13-second period, and the wind is a slight WSW cross-shore at 3 mph, leaving only small wind ripples. The energy is moderate at 4079. It’s marginal, but it’s the best we’ve seen in days.

Sunday the 6th, the swell is 13ft early, dropping to 12ft, with a clean cross-off wind from the SSW at 16-19 mph. The energy is strong, but it’s big – only for the experienced.

Now, the standout of the entire forecast: Monday the 7th of September. The swell drops to 8ft from the SW, with a 13-second period. The wind is a glassy NE breeze at 3 mph. The conditions are excellent for experienced surfers, with a combined energy of 4162. This is as clean as it gets. The afternoon holds up with a light cross-off wind.

Tuesday the 8th, the swell drops to 6ft, still clean, but the energy drops to 2394. It’s good, but not as punchy.

The second week brings another promising window. Wednesday the 9th of September, the swell jumps to 10ft early, then 12ft in the afternoon, from the WSW with a 17-second period. The wind is light and cross-off from the ENE. The afternoon session has a strong energy of 6502 and is excellent for experienced surfers. This is a solid long-range prospect.

Thursday the 10th, the swell hits 13ft with an 18-second period, but the wind is strong and cross-on from the N, making it choppy and poor. The rest of the week into Saturday the 12th is a mix of 10ft swell and moderate to fresh winds, keeping things marginal.

Overall, the best windows are the afternoon of Saturday the 29th of August, and the glassy morning of Monday the 7th of September. The 9th of September afternoon is also a promising long-range call. Keep your eyes on the wind and tide. This is a reef break that demands respect.

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.
