Alright, Rusty here, let's have a look at what Pea Break has in store.
The coming week offers a pretty wild ride, starting a bit rough but building into some seriously punchy, clean surf by the weekend. We've got a lot of SW groundswell on the table, and the key is timing the wind right because it's gonna be a factor early on.
Right now, Thursday the 8th and Friday the 9th are looking like a write-off, so don't even bother. It's messy onshore junk with an 12ft to 10ft swell, but the wind is all wrong. We're sitting with a cross-onshore breeze that's just gonna chop everything up.
Things start to turn around Saturday morning, the 11th. Pea Break cleans right up with some light offshore SE wind. We've got a solid 7ft SW groundswell with a 13-second period. The energy is there. It's a bit hefty, but for the advanced crew, this is where it gets interesting. The water temp is sitting about 66°, which is normal for the time of year.
Sunday the 12th is when I'd be getting excited. That SW groundswell pulses with a nice 15-second period, and Saturday's offshore flow is still in play on Sunday morning with just a slight breeze. We're looking at 8ft, clean, with a touch of glass. The combined energy is strong. This is proper. The crowd factor is "sometimes" at this reef, so you might have company, but it'll be worth it.
Monday the 13th is the real standout. Morning glass, flat calm, and an 12ft SW groundswell with a 16-second period. That's a long-period groundswell, so it'll have plenty of push and shape, but it's going to unload fast on the reef. This one's for the experts only. The energy is pumping. If you're an experienced surfer, this is the session of the week.
Tuesday the 14th stays clean with that same 10ft swell and glassy conditions again on the afternoon. More quality for the experienced crowd.
Now, we get a bit of a drop-off Friday and Saturday the 17th and 18th. The wind goes feral. We're talking a near gale from the west with rain, and it'll blow the whole thing out. Big surf, yes – up to 12ft – but it's a mess.
Then, Sunday the 19th of July, it gets massive. We're looking at an 18ft WSW groundswell with a crazy 18-second period. The combined energy is astronomical. The wind is cross-off, so it will be clean, but this is way too big for this spot. It's strictly for the most experienced big-wave chargers, and even then, you need to be thinking about safety. Monday the 20th is similar, with a 20ft swell, but the wind goes cross-shore, so it'll have a chop on it.
The end of the run on Tuesday the 22nd and Wednesday the 23rd looks promising again, with a 13ft SW swell and a fresh offshore wind. It'll be clean and powerful, another one for the pros.
So, to sum it up: sit out the first couple of days, get fired up for Sunday the 12th through Tuesday the 15th, and if you're a hardcore expert, circle Monday the 13th as the absolute best, but know it's for experts only. Then, the huge stuff on the 19th and 20th is something else entirely. The second half of July is looking pretty special, but you have to pick your window.
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.
