The Lowdown

Alright, listen up, crew. It’s Rusty. Let’s talk about what’s on the menu for Pea Break. This is a reef setup, so it’s for the advanced crew only. We’re looking at a real mixed bag here, with some big, grunty swell on the horizon, but a whole lot of wind to deal with first.

The window kicks off Monday the 31st of August, and the water temp is sitting pretty normal for this time of year at 64.2°.

Right out of the gate, Monday the 31st is a write-off. The wind is a messy cross-on at 19 mph, with a 8.2ft WSW swell. The energy is in the moderate bunch at 3456, but the conditions are just poor. Tuesday the 1st and Wednesday the 2nd are flat out average. The swell holds at 8.2ft, but the wind keeps it choppy and messy. The real story starts on Thursday the 3rd of September. The swell jumps to 11.5ft from the SW, but the wind is a horrible cross-on at 16 mph, blowing it all out. The energy is ramping up (5726), but it’s a no-go for a paddle.

Then we get to the first real standout. Friday the 4th of September. The morning has a 16.4ft SW swell with a long period of 16 seconds, and the energy is cranked up to a massive 13437. Now, the wind is a moderate cross-shore, not perfect, but it’s rideable. This is big, powerful groundswell. That 16.4ft is well into expert territory, so only the brave need apply. The long period means it’ll be fat and powerful, but with cross-chop, it'll be a battle. The afternoon is a touch smaller at 16.4ft, but still a beast.

The weekend of the 5th and 6th of September is a total bust. The wind goes nuclear, hitting near gale force on Saturday with 37 mph winds. Surfing is out of the question. The setup looks more like a kite-surfing zone than a paddle spot.

The next proper window worth looking at is Monday the 7th of September. The afternoon session is the pick of the bunch. You’ve got a 11.5ft SW swell with a period of 20 seconds – that’s a very long period groundswell. The energy is off the charts at 18781. The wind is a moderate cross-shore, so it’ll be a bit lumpy, but with that period, the wave shape will be incredible. This is a reef break, so it’ll handle that long period beautifully. The early part of the week sees a clean-up, with Tuesday the 8th offering a 13.1ft SW swell with a light, variable cross-wind from the NNE at 9 mph. That’s a lot better, though the energy is back down to 8604.

The second week, from the 9th of September onwards, is a step down. The swell drops to a more manageable 8.2ft to 9.8ft, and the wind starts to look a lot better. The 10th of September has a clean afternoon with a cross-offshore breeze, and the 11th of September is looking tidy too with a 7.9ft SW swell and clean conditions. The 13th of September stands out in this second week: a 13.1ft to 14.8ft WSW swell with a clean cross-offshore wind. The energy is back up to 8485, and it’s a solid reef wave. The 14th of September has a nice 9.8ft SW swell with a 16-second period and a clean cross-off breeze, making for a very long, clean ride.

So, the clear standout is the afternoon of Monday the 7th of September. That 20-second period groundswell is a proper event. Friday the 4th is a close second for the raw power. The second week is more modest, but the 13th and 14th of September offer clean, solid waves.

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.
