Table - best surf conditions forecast for Pea Break over the next 16 days.
Alright, Rusty here, looking at the surf for Pea Break over the next two weeks.
The best bet is right at the start. Sunday the 12th and Monday the 13th, we’ve got a solid SW groundswell, head-high to well overhead (10 to 12 feet), with a long period of 14 to 17 seconds. The wind is light and cross-offshore, keeping it glassy. There’s a ton of energy in the water (combined energy of 4762 to 8192). This is no place for beginners – the swell is over 8 feet, so it’s expert territory. The long period will make for lulls but great shape on the reef. Crowds are a possibility.
Monday the 13th is a carbon copy of the quality: solid 12-foot SW swell, light cross-off breeze, clean conditions. The energy is pumping (6551). This is a standout for the pros.
Then we get a nasty stretch from Wednesday the 15th through the end of the week. Strong, blustery onshore winds from the north ruin everything. The swell is still there, but the ocean is messy and lumpy. Don’t even think about it. Saturday the 18th looks huge, with a 20-foot WSW swell and a massive combined energy of 22072, but the wind is howling onshore. This setup is more for the kite surfers than paddle surfers.
It cleans up nicely on Sunday the 19th. The swell drops to a more manageable 13 feet from the SW, with light winds. That’s a return to clean, powerful lines for the experienced crew.
Looking further ahead, around Thursday the 23rd of July, there’s another big pulse of WSW swell coming in at 16 feet with a 17-second period. The energy is enormous (12746), and the wind is offshore and light. That’s a top-notch session for experts, but it’s about a week and a half away, so keep a watch on it.
The very end of the forecast, from the 25th onward, looks like it gets blown out again with strong westerly winds. So, the first few days and that late July window are your best shots.
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.
