The Lowdown
Right then, let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for Pea Break. It’s a classic reef setup, takes a good south-west swell, and it’s known for being one for the advanced crew. The water temp’s sitting at 66°, which is pretty much what you’d expect for this time of year, nothing out of the ordinary.
Alright, the honest truth is the next week and a half is a bit of a write-off. We’ve got a lot of wind and messy conditions to wade through before anything really clicks. The first few days are a no-go. Wednesday the 15th and Thursday the 16th are a mess, with strong onshore winds and big, lumpy waves. Not worth paddling out for. This continues right through until the 21st. There’s a lot of cross-onshore wind and poor surf, with a few windows of "marginal" conditions on the 16th afternoon and 19th, but nothing that’s going to get the heart racing. The swell energy is moderate to strong (between 1615 and 9126), but it’s just not clean.
The light at the end of the tunnel is Wednesday the 22nd of July. That’s the real standout. We’ve got a solid 13ft to 12ft groundswell pushing in from the SW with a period of 13 seconds, and the wind is forecast to be light offshore from the SSE. That’s a proper recipe for a clean, powerful reef break. The combined energy is strong (4887). This is not for the faint-hearted though; at this size, it’s strictly for experienced surfers only. The moderate offshore breeze will keep the faces clean, and with the swell coming from the optimum SW direction, it should line up beautifully. Keep in mind the crowds are sometimes an issue here, so get in early.
Looking further ahead to the 30th of July, Thursday morning, there’s another promising window. We’re seeing a 10ft SW groundswell, but this time with a very long period of 17 seconds and moderate offshore winds from the SSE. The energy is very strong (6924). That’s a quality swell, and for a reef break like this, the long period should produce some real gems. It’s another one for the experts though, and it’s a week and a half out, so keep an eye on it.
So, to sum it up: the first ten days are a battle with the wind. Your best bet is the 22nd, with a shot of quality waves for the experienced, and a potential follow-up on the 30th if the forecast holds.

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.
