The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here, lookin’ at what we’ve got for Pea Break. It’s been a bit of a rough start with some serious wind and messy conditions. The water’s sitting at 65°, which is pretty average for this time of year, nothing weird goin’ on there.
We’ve got a hefty groundswell rollin’ in on Thursday the 3rd, a solid 12 ft from the SW with a long 15-second period and a massive 5726 combined swell energy. But, the wind is straight onshore and howling at 16 mph, so it’s just a blown-out mess. Not worth paddling out. That onshore wind stays nasty right through Saturday the 5th, with the swell still big but messy. We’re talking 13 ft+ and combined energy over 4500, but the wind is just ruining it. At this size and with that wind, it’s more of a kitesurfing zone than a wave-riding spot.
Now, Sunday the 6th start to show some hope. The wind swings around to a light morning cross-off from the SSE at 22 mph and the swell is still a punchy 15 ft from the SW, period 13 seconds, and combined energy at 6867. It’s still big and a bit rough, but cleanin’ up. This is for the experienced crew only—way too much water for beginners.
The standout of the whole outlook is Tuesday the 8th. We’ve got a clean 13 ft SW groundswell, period stretching out to a very long 18 seconds, and combined energy through the roof at 9590. But the real magic is the wind: glassy, dead calm in the afternoon. That’s as good as it gets—clean, powerful lines, groundswell groomin’ the reef. This is prime for the advanced surfer, but the long period might make the waves stand up a bit too quick at a beach break; here at Pea Break, a reef setup, it’s gonna be perfect. Crowds can show up sometimes here, so get out early or late.
The swell drops off a little into Wednesday the 9th and beyond, with the wind coming back cross and onshore. The next real moment is Monday the 14th morning—another glassy session with 10 ft from the SW, period 14 seconds, and combined energy of 4281. Clean, excellent conditions for experienced surfers. Into Tuesday the 15th, we get a clean offshore from the SSE at 12 mph with a 10 ft SW swell, period 14 seconds, and 2925 combined energy. Good size, clean, and less crowded vibes. After that, the swell starts to fade significantly, with smaller waves and more wind chop through the second week, so the real action is in that first full week.
Take it easy, and I’ll see you out there.
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.
