The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let’s break down Pea Break. This is a tricky, advanced reef setup, and while there’s plenty of swell in the 16-day window, the winds are going to make you work for it.

Overall, the pattern is messy. We’ve got a solid run of good-sized groundswell through the period – moderate to very strong wave energy – but for the next week, the wind is mostly cross or cross-onshore, killing the quality. The water temp is around 64°, which is about normal for this time of year, so no big surprises.

For the first few days – Thursday the 10th through to Sunday the 13th – it’s a write-off. You’ve got 6ft to 12ft of WSW swell, but the wind is relentless: moderate to fresh breeze, cross or cross-onshore, making everything lumpy and choppy. Thursday afternoon offers a brief window with light cross-onshore wind and a 6ft swell (15-second period), but it’s still marginal. Not worth paddling out.

The real standout? Monday the 14th and Tuesday the 15th. That’s where it all comes together. Monday morning sees a solid 12ft WSW swell with a 14-second period, and – finally – a gentle cross-offshore breeze. The wave comment says excellent for experienced surfers, and that’s exactly what it is: clean, powerful, and lined up. Monday afternoon holds with the same 12ft swell and a 15-second period, and a light southerly cross-off. Tuesday the 15th stays clean in the morning with a 10ft WSW swell and light southerly wind. The caveat is that 10ft to 12ft is expert-only territory, especially at a reef break. Crowds are possible here sometimes, but with that size and a fairly exposed setup, there’ll be plenty of waves to go around.

After that, Wednesday the 16th is still good – 8ft SW groundswell with a very long 16-second period, clean conditions in the morning (cross-off), and the wave comment is excellent. That’s a solid option for strong intermediate to advanced surfers.

From Thursday the 17th, things start to deteriorate. Onshore winds return, the swell drops to 7ft and the period backs off to 13 seconds, and it’s choppy. Friday the 18th gets nasty – a near gale hits with 31 mph winds, swell jumps to 13ft and then 16ft with a short 9-second period on Friday morning, and the whole thing is blown out.

Then we get another possible window around Sunday the 20th and Monday the 21st. This is promising but still a week and a half out, so take it with a grain of salt. Sunday morning the 20th has a very strong 13ft SW swell (15-second period) with glassy cross-offshore wind. The wave comment says exceptional for experts – that’s about as good as it gets if it holds. Monday the 21st is similar: 13ft SW swell, 15-second period, and light cross-offshore wind in the afternoon. These are big, powerful, clean days for experienced crew only.

The final days from the 22nd to the 25th see a return to cross-onshore winds and lumpy conditions, with swell hanging around 8ft to 10ft. Not worth the drive unless you’re desperate and the wind swings.

So, bottom line: if you’re an expert, circle Monday 14th and Tuesday 15th as the best bets – clean, powerful, and consistent. Sunday the 20th is a long-range standout but less certain. Beginners, stay well away; this is big reef surfing.

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.
