The Lowdown

Alright, grab your board, let's talk about what's cooking at Pea Break. This is a reef break that's usually up for it, and it's a fairly exposed spot, so it can handle a fair bit of energy. The water's sitting at a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, about 66°.

Right now, it's a bit of a mess. We've got a rainy Tuesday with a strong northwesterly breeze hammering the coast, blowing onshore at 25 mph. The swell is all over the place, and the surf is just poor. It's not worth paddling out for. We're looking at a solid 8 ft of swell, but with that wind, it's ugly.

We're going to have to wait until Wednesday the 26th for the real show to start. Even then, it's described as marginal, but the numbers are nuts. We're seeing a building swell hitting 15 ft on Wednesday morning, with a very long period of 18 seconds and a combined energy reading of 13576, dropping to 16 ft in the afternoon. This is huge, powerful groundswell. The wind is a cross-off, so it'll be clean, but this is expert territory. A 15 ft to 16 ft swell with that energy is not for the faint of heart. This is where you need to be on your game.

The swell starts to wind down after that, but Thursday the 27th is still pumping with 13 ft in the morning, though the wind picks up to a fresh breeze. Friday the 28th sees the swell drop to 7 ft in the morning, with a fresh offshore breeze and clean conditions. That's a much more manageable size, but it's still a bit on the bigger side for beginners.

Now, the standout window is shaping up to be Saturday the 29th. The morning is showing 7 ft of SW groundswell with a 16-second period and a moderate offshore breeze. The energy is a strong 3218, and the conditions are tagged as excellent for experienced surfers. That's a solid, clean wave. The afternoon gets even better with a 10 ft swell from the same direction, an 18-second period, and a light cross-off breeze. The energy jumps to 5591, and it's still clean. That is the session to target. It's going to be a powerful, clean swell at a reef break with good offshore wind. It's a standout.

The following week is a mixed bag. There's a lot of wind and onshore conditions, with some big swells but messy surf. The real highlight for the second week comes on the final day of the forecast, Tuesday the 8th of September. The morning is a beauty: a 8 ft SW swell, light offshore wind from the ESE, and the conditions are tagged as excellent for experienced surfers. It's a clean, crisp morning with a moderate energy reading of 1724. Then, Wednesday the 9th of September finishes strong with a 10 ft SW swell, a 16-second period, and a light cross-off breeze. The afternoon is clean, with a powerful energy reading of 4547. That's a very promising end to the run.

So, to sum it up, the best of the best is definitely Saturday the 29th, with that clean, powerful groundswell. The second half of the second week, specifically Tuesday the 8th and Wednesday the 9th of September, also looks seriously promising. The rest of the time, you'll be fighting the wind, or the swell will be too big for comfort. Keep your eyes on that Saturday.

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.
