The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let me break down what’s coming for Pea Break over the next 16 days.
Water temp is sitting at 66°, which is just a touch warmer than average for this time of year – nothing crazy.
First thing, the first week is a total loss. From Wednesday the 15th all the way through Sunday the 20th, the wind is mostly cross-on or onshore, and often strong. There’s plenty of size, from 8ft up to a massive 18ft on Saturday the 18th, and the combined energy is pumping (3488 to 10875), but it’s all lumpy, choppy, and messy. The 16th of July has a Thursday afternoon that’s clean with cross-off wind, but the score is low and the tide is questionable. It’s a maybe, not a go. If you’re a kite surfer, Saturday the 18th is your day – that big, onshore slop is a kite’s playground.
The real standout is Saturday the 25th of July afternoon. Finally, the wind cooperates. The swell drops to a clean 5ft from the SW, combined energy is moderate (1032), and the period hits 14 seconds – that’s proper groundswell. The wind is a light breeze from the NE, cross-off, giving you clean, glassy waves. The forecast says “expect very good surf conditions,” and for Pea Break, this is the best on offer. It’s an advanced reef break, fairly consistent, and the optimum swell direction is SW, which is exactly what’s coming. Crowds are sometimes here, so expect a few locals on a Saturday afternoon.
The 22nd and 23rd of July have some cleaner, lighter winds, with a gentle cross-shore and slight chop, and swell around 8ft to 10ft from the SW with a decent 13-14 second period. Combined energy is moderate (2415-3294). It’s not the highlight, but it’s a solid option if you miss the 25th. The 29th of July Wednesday afternoon has a massive 7ft swell with a 21-second period – that’s very long period groundswell. The combined energy jumps to 4152, but the wind is cross-on, so it’s going to be lumpy. At a reef, that long period will be beautiful, but the wind will mess it up.
The 30th of July Thursday afternoon closes the window with 8ft from the WSW at 17 seconds, a gentle cross-shore breeze, and clean conditions. Combined energy is moderate (3439). It’s a solid option, but not as standout as the 25th.
Best bet: Saturday the 25th of July afternoon. Mark it. For the rest, it’s a picky period.
Rusty.

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.
