The Lowdown
G’day, I’m Rusty. Let’s talk about the surf ahead at Pea Break.
We’ve got a solid run of southwest groundswell lining up, and Pea Break is a reef setup that loves that direction. The water temp is sitting at about 65°, which is roughly 2° warmer than usual for this time of year – nothing crazy, just a touch on the mild side.
The real standout here is Monday the 7th and Tuesday the 8th. Monday morning is the pick: a clean 12ft SW swell with a very long 16-second period and gentle offshore SSE winds. The wave energy is pumping hard at 6816 (moderate-to-strong), and conditions are exceptional for expert surfers. That’s the kind of session where you paddle out and feel like the ocean is giving you something special. Tuesday morning is nearly as good – still 12ft from the WSW, same long 16-second period, light SE offshore breeze, and even more energy at 6952. Both mornings are glassy clean and only for advanced crew.
Wednesday afternoon the 2nd kicks things off with an 12ft SW swell, 13-second period, and cross-off SSW breeze. The energy is already strong at 3984, but the wind is a bit blustery and the surf is marginal. Thursday the 3rd is a write-off – strong onshore winds and big messy swell. Friday the 4th sees a big 16ft WSW groundswell coming through, but the wind is cross-shore and the surf is lumpy. Friday afternoon is better: 16ft at 15 seconds, gentle cross-shore breeze, cross-chop but workable energy at 10881 – that’s very strong energy, but it’s a big, powerful wave only for experienced surfers.
Saturday the 5th is blown out with rain and near gale-force winds. Sunday the 6th looks cleaner but still cross-off breezes and 13–15ft SW swell – not terrible, but not the peak.
From Monday the 7th to Tuesday the 8th is the sweet spot. Wednesday the 9th holds 10ft WSW swell but winds are a bit mixed. Thursday the 10th drops off with smaller 7–8ft waves and onshore wind – poor. Friday the 11th brings back 10ft WSW swell with clean cross-off breezes, but the magic is gone.
Saturday the 12th is a nice surprise: 12ft WSW at 16 seconds, light NE cross-off wind, clean, excellent for experienced surfers. Energy sits at 6524. Sunday the 13th has a solid 13ft SW swell but moderate cross-shore chop. Monday the 14th morning is glassy with a light NNW breeze and 10ft WSW swell – super clean but not big.
After that, the second week sees the swell taper. Tuesday the 15th through to Thursday the 17th fades from 10ft down to 6ft, mostly WSW direction, with generally clean or light cross-shore conditions. The energy drops from 2991 down to 1568 – weak to moderate. Nothing to get excited about, but for a board with fins, you could still find a knee-to-waist-high ripple if you’re keen.
There’s a gap of a few days in the middle of the second week where the surf gets pretty small and marginal, but it never fully flatlines. Crowds at Pea Break are sometimes an issue, so for the standout days, expect company.
Lock in Monday the 7th and Tuesday the 8th. That’s the real deal.

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.
