The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at what’s on the table for Pea Break over the next couple of weeks.
This is going to be a real mixed bag. The surf kicks off on Friday, July 24th, but to be honest, the early days are nothing to write home about. The water temp is sitting around average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
For Friday, we’ve got a 5ft SW swell rolling in with a 12-second period, but a moderate cross-onshore breeze from the NNE has it chopped up. Not worth paddling out. The combined energy is weak to moderate (872). Saturday the 25th is more of the same, with a slight bump in size to 6ft but wind staying cross-onshore and choppy.
Sunday the 26th gets ugly. A short-period 10ft WNW swell smacks the coast, but with a fresh to near-gale cross-onshore wind, it’s blown out and lumpy. Combined energy is strong (1544 to 3107). This is more of a kite-surfing setup than a paddle session. That trend continues into Monday the 27th, where the swell jumps to 15ft from the WSW with a 14-second period and a clean cross-offshore wind. The wave energy is very strong (6890). This is solid, but that size is for experts only. The conditions are clean for an advanced crowd.
Now, here’s the standout. Tuesday, July 28th. Morning brings a 10ft SW swell with a 14-second period and a light cross-offshore breeze. The afternoon flips to absolute glass: 8ft SW swell, 13-second period, and glassy conditions with a NNE breeze of just 3 mph. Combined energy is still very strong (2909 to 3103). This is the pick of the whole outlook. The reef at Pea Break should be offering up some excellent, clean waves for experienced surfers. Crowds are possible here.
Wednesday the 29th gets messy again with a moderate cross-shore chop, and by the 30th, we get a clean window Thursday afternoon: 10ft SW swell with an 18-second period and a cross-offshore breeze. Combined energy is extreme (5627). That’s a very long period groundswell, which means well-shaped, powerful waves with long lulls. Best suited to the reef.
The first week of August kicks off strong. July 31st and August 1st both pump 15ft to 16ft SW swells. The morning of the 31st has gentle cross-onshore conditions, but the afternoon turns offshore from the NW. August 1st afternoon looks epic on paper: 16ft SW swell, 16-second period, and a fresh offshore SSE wind. Combined energy is massive (11541). That’s a serious, expert-only swell.
After that, it’s downhill. August 2nd sees a drop to 13ft but with strong offshore winds that make paddling out a battle. By August 3rd and 4th, the wind goes sideways and messy, and from August 4th onward, conditions deteriorate with strong cross-onshore winds and lumpy, blown-out surf. Pea Break looks pretty average from the second week. The swell stays in the 5ft to 10ft range, but the wind destroys it. There’s a stretch from August 4th to the 8th where the recommendation is zero—just poor conditions.
The top call? Without a doubt, Tuesday, July 28th—especially the afternoon glass-off. That’s the one to book off work for.

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.
