Table - best surf conditions forecast for La Push over the next 16 days.
Alright, this is Rusty, and I’m looking at the next 16 days for our local patch. Let’s be straight with each other – it’s a pretty grim stretch of surf. The water is sitting at a chilly 54°, which is a solid 5° colder than usual for this time of year, so you’ll want a good hood and gloves.
The first real chance to get wet comes on Saturday, July 11th. That morning is the standout in the whole outlook. La Push is a reef setup, and it’s consistent, so you know it’s got a reliable shape. The swell is coming in at 4ft from the WNW with a period of 10 seconds, and the wind is dead glassy. That’s a rare combo, and it’s going to be clean as a whistle. The combined energy is in the moderate range at 560, so there’s enough push for a fun session. It’s a beginner-friendly break, but with that kind of glass, everyone will be having a good time. You might run into a few others, as crowds are sometimes an issue here, but for a Saturday morning with that quality, it’ll be worth it.
After that Saturday morning window, the outlook turns sour. The afternoon of the 11th and then Sunday the 12th through to the end of the second week are mostly a write-off. The wind switches to a cross-onshore breeze, and the wave heights drop or get messy. We’re looking at a long gap of poor conditions with no real recommendations from Sunday the 12th all the way through to the 25th of July. There are a few mornings with some marginal surf, like on the 16th and 17th, but the wind is always on it, and the quality just isn’t there.
The second week from the 18th onwards sees some bigger swell showing up, particularly around the 22nd and 23rd, with heights pushing 6ft to 7ft from the WNW. But the period is short, around 7-8 seconds, and the wind is a constant cross-onshore. That combo is just choppy, bumpy, and not worth paddling out for. The energy jumps up to strong levels, reaching 784 on the 22nd, but with the wind and short period, this setup looks more interesting for the kite surfers than for anyone on a paddle board. There’s just nothing to get excited about in that second half.
So, the simple truth is: if you want a wave in the next 16 days, your only real shot is that glassy Saturday morning. After that, it’s a long, dry spell.
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.
