The Lowdown
Righto, let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for Pea Break.
Pea Break is a heavy reef break, so this ain’t a spot for the faint-hearted. The water temp is sitting about average for this time of year. We’ve got a solid run of SW groundswell coming through, but the wind is a real mixed bag across the 16 days, so we’ve gotta pick our moments.
The first real standout is Tuesday the 28th of July. The morning session is looking choice. You’ve got a clean 10ft swell from the SW, with a 14-second period, which is proper long-period groundswell. The combined energy is strong (3549). Light ESE winds at 6 mph are blowing cross-offshore, keeping it clean. This is a top window for the experienced crew. The afternoon looks a bit messier with a cross-shore wind, so aim for the early.
The next absolute cracker is Sunday the 2nd of August. The morning is clean with an 12ft SW swell, 14-second period, and light E winds at 9 mph. The energy is still strong (4254). But the afternoon is the real gem – glassy conditions with a 10ft SW groundswell and a 14-second period. The combined energy is strong (3805). This is as good as it gets for a reef break, with no wind to mess it up. Keep in mind it’s fairly consistent, but crowds are possible, so get out there.
There’s a lot of massive swell and strong wind after that, especially from the 5th of August onwards. By the 7th and 8th of August, we’re talking 23ft+ SW swells – that’s properly big, experts-only territory, and the wind is howling, making it a total mess. That’s more of a kite-surfing scene than a paddle session.
For the second week, keep an eye on Tuesday the 4th of August. The morning has a clean 10ft SW swell, 16-second period (very long period groundswell), and light E winds at 6 mph. The energy is strong (4490). The afternoon is also excellent with light SSW winds. It’s a promising window, but further out so less certain.
Overall, the best of the best is the glassy afternoon on Sunday the 2nd of August. The Tuesday morning on the 28th of July is a close second.

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.
