The Lowdown
Hey, Rusty here again. Let's break down the La Push forecast in feet and knots.
It's a quiet start, folks. The first few days are blown out with onshore winds and small, short-period swell. Not worth your time.
The first real chance to get wet is on Thursday morning, September 17th. The wind will be glassy, the swell is around 5ft from the WNW with moderate energy (440). That's the pick of the first week—smooth conditions and rideable waves. Don't bother with the afternoon as the wind shifts onshore and messes it up.
We then hit a slow patch. For about five days, it's mostly small junky swell with poor wind. Marginal at best through the 22nd.
Now, for the long-range look: Wednesday, September 23rd. The morning session is the real standout. Glassy conditions again, with a solid 6ft swell from the west and moderate energy (874). That's a good size for this reef break. It's a week and a half out, so it's a promising bet but not locked in. Circle it.
Water temp is around 60°, pretty much standard for this time of year.
For the beginners, the mornings of the 25th and 26th are your windows. The 26th morning has clean cross-offshore wind and a 4ft swell, easy paddling. And the 27th morning is dead glassy with a tiny 2ft wave, ideal for a log.
The main event? That's Wednesday the 23rd morning. Get excited.
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.
La Push is 93 km (58 miles) from the city of Port Angeles. If you plan a vacation in Washington State, look for hotels and other accommodation in Port Angeles. Port Angeles has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
