The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's talk about what's on the table at Pea Break.
Right off the bat, the forecast is a real mixed bag. This is an advanced reef break that needs the stars to align, and unfortunately, for the next week or so, the wind gods aren't playing nice. We’ve got some serious size coming, but it's going to be a battle against the breeze for most of it. The combined swell energy is moderate to very strong, reaching up to 14,487, so there's power in the water, but that doesn't mean it's surfable.
Looking at the coming days, things are pretty grim through the first week. Sunday afternoon the 30th of August shows a 10ft swell from the WSW with a long 16-second period, but it's onshore. Monday the 31st through Thursday the 3rd is mostly poor with onshore or cross-onshore winds and strong breezes on the 3rd, making it a write-off for clean surfing. The water temp is 64°F, which is pretty much what you'd expect for this time of year.
The first real standout window finally appears on Friday the 4th of September. That Friday afternoon is your best bet of the whole first week. We’re looking at a solid 16ft swell from the WSW with a 16-second period, and the wind turns cross-offshore from the SSW at a manageable 12 mph. This is a powerful reef break coming alive with very strong combined energy of 11,654, and it'll be clean. This is only for experts, though. At 16ft, that's a heavy slab, not a beginner wave. Crowds are possible here.
Then, the whole second half of the second week cleans up. Sunday the 6th of September afternoon is a highlight, with a 12ft WSW swell but an incredibly long 19-second period and very strong energy of 12,131. With a cross-off SSW breeze, that's a top-tier afternoon.
Monday the 7th of September is another cracker. The morning has a 15ft WSW swell (17-second period, energy at 10,870) and the afternoon cleans up to a 13ft swell with a 16-second period and the highest energy of the whole run at 14,487. It's a gentle cross-shore, so it'll be a little textured but still solid.
If you have to pick one absolute standout, it's that Monday the 7th of September afternoon. The combination of a very strong groundswell from the optimum SW direction, decent size, and manageable wind makes it the cream of the crop. Just be aware crowds are possible at this spot. Beyond that, Friday the 4th afternoon and Sunday the 6th afternoon are your other top-tier windows. The rest of the second week is a mix of clean but smaller or blown-out bigger days. Stay sharp, this one’s for the experienced crew.
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.
