The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into it for La Push. The water’s a shocker at 54°F – that’s a full 4°F colder than what you’d expect for this time of year, so don’t be shy with the thick rubber.
Right off the bat, it’s flat. Seriously flat. We’re looking at a solid gap of days with no real surf to get excited about until the weekend of the 26th. The first few days are just tiny, weak windswill with a cross-onshore breeze messing it up. The combined energy is barely ticking over (466 to 438), and the scores are trash. Honestly, save your energy.
Things start to look a little more interesting around the 26th of July. The swell is still small, around 3ft to 4ft from the SW, but the period starts to get a bit of length to it. The real highlight is the glassy offshore wind we see on the 27th and 29th, especially the 27th. That morning we’ve got a light WSW breeze and a 3ft SW groundswell (18 second period). It’s going to be super clean. The combined energy is moderate (699), so it’s not a thumper, but for a reef break that’s consistent, this is your window. The best of the whole outlook is that Monday morning, the 27th. It’s a standout for clean conditions. Keep an eye on the 29th morning too, with that same offshore flow and an 18 second period, but the swell is a touch smaller.
Later in the run, around the 2nd and 3rd of August, the swell picks up a bit to 4ft - 5ft, but it’s short-period, 7-second junk from the WNW. The wind is mostly cross-onshore, and the combined energy is weak (302 to 361). That’s just messy, choppy whitewater. Not worth the paddle.
So, the pick of the litter is definitely the 27th of July. Small, yes, but with that light offshore wind and a long period groundswell, La Push will be clean and lined up. The crowds are a possibility here, but with the surf being so small, it might be just the locals out.
Rusty.

Information about the La Push Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for La Push provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at La Push can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our La Push 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 (La Push) 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 La Push 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.
