Table - best surf conditions forecast for Pea Break over the next 16 days.
G'day, I'm Rusty. Let's have a look at what's on offer for Pea Break over the next 16 days.
Alright, we've got a solid start, but it's a short-lived window of opportunity. The standout is Monday afternoon, the 13th of July. That's the one to circle. Pea Break is a reef setup, so it handles the southwest groundswell properly. We're looking at a solid 12ft swell from the southwest, with a very long 16-second period pushing a massive 5292 units of energy. The water is sitting at 66°, which is about average for this time of year. The wind is a light 6 mph cross-off from the SSW, which will keep the face of that reef ledge clean and lined up. This is excellent, but it's strictly for the advanced crew – 12ft with that kind of power is a proper handful.
Tuesday, the 14th, is still okay but definitely a step down. The swell drops to 10ft from the southwest with a 15-second period, but the wind swings to the northeast at 9 mph, creating a cross-shore bump. The morning and afternoon are both rated as marginal, with a moderate cross-chop making it tricky. It's still big, but the quality is dropping.
From Wednesday the 15th through to the end of the forecast, it turns into a bit of a write-off. Wednesday morning kicks off strong onshore winds from the north at 25 mph, making it a messy, blown-out scene. Thursday the 16th has onshore winds and rain, Friday the 17th is a total mess with a near-gale from the west-northwest at 31 mph. The weekend of the 18th and 19th sees massive swell, peaking at 18ft on Saturday morning with a massive 14499 units of energy, but it's all cross-onshore and lumpy. That's a full-on, dangerous ocean for anyone but the most experienced big-wave chargers, and even then, the wind is terrible.
The second week doesn't offer any relief. From Monday the 20th through to the end of the month, it's a consistent run of onshore and cross-onshore winds, with repeated strong breezes and near-gale conditions. The swell stays present, but the wind is just relentless. There are a few moments on the 23rd and 24th where the wind eases to a moderate cross-shore, but the surf is still running 7ft to 12ft with a messy chop. It's not worth paddling out for.
So, the honest truth is: if you're an experienced surfer, you get one shot on Monday afternoon the 13th. After that, it's a long, bumpy stretch until the end of the month. The forecast can always change, but right now, the window is tight.

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.
