The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again, looking at the same 16-day window for Pea Break.
It’s a tale of two halves. The first few days are not worth the drive. You’ve got a bit of swell, but the wind is all over the place.
Wednesday morning (Sep 16th) has a 6 ft south-west swell, but it’s bumpy with a 12 mph north-easterly. The afternoon is the first bright spot – the wind drops to a glassy 3 mph from the north-north-east, cleaning up that 5 ft swell. It's small, but it’ll be a beautiful ride if you get in.
Thursday (17th) and Friday (18th) are pure junk. Onshore winds and a building mess – by Friday afternoon it’s a raw 16 ft with a near-gale on it. Forget it.
The first real day to get your board wet is the morning of Sunday, September 20th. The swell drops to a clean 7 ft from the west-south-west, with a gentle 9 mph breeze from the south-south-west blowing cross-off. The wave energy is moderate (1435), and the report tags it as excellent for experienced surfers. That’s your first clean window.
Then, on the morning of Wednesday, September 23rd, we get another beauty. An 8 ft south-west swell with dead-calm wind – just 3 mph from the north-east, glassy as can be. The energy is moderate (2278). Another excellent, clean session.
But the one to watch, the real standout, is the morning of Friday, September 25th. This is a big one. A solid 15 ft south-west groundswell, with a 19-second period – that's a very long roll. The energy reading is 15565, which is very strong. The wind is a light 9 mph from the south-south-west, clean cross-off. The report says "exceptional surf conditions for expert surfers." This is for experts only – it’s way too big for beginners, and at that size and period, it commands serious respect. If you've got the skill, this is your morning. With such a long period, it might line up a bit straight on this break, but the raw power will be insane.
The days after that are still big and powerful but the wind picks up. The energy stays massive (16336 Saturday morning), but the conditions turn messy.
To sum it up: Save your energy for the second week. The absolute best is the morning of Friday, September 25th – an exceptional, expert-only day. The morning of Wednesday, September 23rd is a solid, clean second choice for experienced surfers.
Rusty out.

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.
