Alright, Rusty here. Let's take a look at the next few weeks and see what Pea Break has in store for us.
Alright, so we’ve got a solid run of swell coming into Pea Break, a reef setup that handles a good SW groundswell. No need to look anywhere else for this forecast period; this is the spot if you've got the skills. The water temp is sitting at about average for this time of year, so nothing wild there.
The action starts Thursday morning, the 9th of July. The surf is up at a serious 10ft from the WSW with a long 14-second period, pumping a huge amount of energy. The wind is glassy from the north at only 3 mph, making for absolutely perfect conditions. This is excellent for experienced surfers only – this size is no joke for beginners. The crowd factor? Sometimes it gets busy, and on a morning like this, you can bet the lineup will have a few. Thursday afternoon gets messy as the wind swings onshore and the quality drops.
Friday the 10th is cleaner but a step down in size, with 7ft from the SW in the morning under some clouds and a clean cross-off breeze. It’s still a bit of a handful, and the quality is just marginal. Saturday the 11th is a good one, though. Saturday morning delivers 8ft of SW swell with a cross-off breeze, giving you clean, powerful waves. It’s a standout for the first week. Saturday afternoon gets bigger again to 10ft, but stays clean, so the afternoon session could be rewarding for the brave.
Now, Sunday the 12th of July is where it gets special. The morning has a solid 10ft of SW swell, a glassy 3 mph wind, and a huge energy reading. Then Sunday afternoon is the pick of the first week: 10ft SW swell with an exceptional 17-second period. The wind is a gentle cross-off, keeping it all clean. This is exceptional surf for experts. Monday the 13th is another cracker: the morning is glassy calm with an 12ft SW groundswell. The afternoon stays clean. Absolutely pumping, but you need to know what you’re doing.
The second week starts to get a bit more complicated. From Tuesday the 14th through Wednesday the 15th, the energy drops and the winds get a bit cross or onshore, making the quality marginal. Thursday the 16th and Friday the 17th are write-offs with strong, choppy cross-onshore winds and poor surf.
We get a bit of a reprieve on Saturday the 18th of July, but the swell is a messy, short-period 15ft to 18ft from the WSW. The wind is cross-off, keeping it clean, but with a period of only 9-10 seconds and that much size, it’s going to be a washing machine. Not a paddle surfer’s friend – looks more like a kite day if anything.
Then we hit the true standout of the entire 16-day run: Sunday the 19th of July. This is the one to circle on the calendar. The morning delivers an enormous 20ft of WSW groundswell with a very long 15-second period and staggering wave energy. The wind is glassy from the east at 3 mph. This is exceptional for experts only. The afternoon is nearly as good: 18ft from the SW with a clean offshore wind. This is the best on offer, no question. It’s a long way out, so keep an eye on it, but the potential is huge.
Monday the 20th and Tuesday the 21st settle down to a more manageable 12ft to 13ft with offshore and cross-off winds, offering excellent, clean waves for experienced surfers. Wednesday the 22nd gets messy again with strong cross-onshore wind, but Thursday the 23rd and Friday the 24th look to finish the run strong, with clean offshore winds and solid 10ft to 12ft SW swell. Friday the 24th morning is a nice, clean 7ft option for a slightly easier session.
So, the standout sessions are Sunday afternoon the 12th for the first week, and without a doubt, Sunday the 19th of July for the whole run. That 19th is the one you want to be ready 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.
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.
