The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's get into it.

We've got a solid run of surf on the cards for Pea Break, but don't be fooled – this is a shallow reef setup for advanced surfers only. The opening of the forecast is a bit of a mixed bag, but the standout days are clear.

The first real action kicks off on Wednesday, the 19th of August. We're looking at a big, powerful groundswell. The swell is coming in from the WSW at 15ft, and the period is a very long 15 to 16 seconds. That's a lot of energy in the water (8648), and this is not a day for the faint-hearted. The wind is a messy cross-shore, so expect some chop on the face. The water is sitting at 66°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year.

Thursday the 20th and Friday the 21st are where it really starts to clean up. The swell drops slightly to a still solid 12ft from the WSW, with that long 15 to 16-second period. The real story here is the wind. By Thursday afternoon and through Friday, we get clean, cross-offshore breezes. The energy is still massive (over 5000), and the conditions will be excellent. This is serious, powerful surf for experienced surfers only.

Saturday the 22nd and Sunday the 23rd see the size easing a touch, but the energy remains strong. The wind stays clean and cross-off, which is a major positive. The swell is still 8ft to 12ft, so it's still a big, powerful wave. The consistency is there, and the format is clean, but it's still a heavy wave.

The best of the best, however, looks to be Monday the 1st of September. After a period of lumpy, windy conditions and some complete washouts at the end of August, we get a serious reset. The morning of the 1st is looking like the moment to circle. We have a clean 12ft WSW groundswell with a 15-second period, combined with light, cross-offshore winds from the south. The energy is a solid 5170, and the conditions are described as "excellent." The whole setup is firing. This is the one to keep an eye on as the absolute standout.

The run from Monday the 25th of August through to the end of the month is mostly a write-off, with strong onshore winds and a stormy pattern ruining the shape. The 31st of August is a complete washout with gale-force winds. A long gap of poor conditions.

So, to sum it up: the big, clean groundswell windows are the afternoons of the 20th and the 21st of August, and the absolute highlight is the morning of the 1st of September. This is a heavy, powerful reef, so leave the beginners at home.

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.

Pea Break is 72 km (45 miles) from the city of Bunbury. If you plan a holiday in Margaret River, look for hotels and other accommodation in Bunbury. Bunbury has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
