Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's talk about what's on the cards for La Push over the next couple of weeks. Honestly, it's a bit of a mixed bag, and we're looking at a pretty long stretch of nothing much before things get interesting.
Right now, there's no surf worth paddling out for. We're looking at a dry spell from today through the weekend and into most of next week. The waves are small, the wind is mostly cross-onshore, and the combined energy is low to moderate at best, with values struggling to break 500 or showing weak numbers like 336 (moderate wave energy). The water temperature is sitting at a chilly 53°F, which is a whopping 6°F colder than normal for this time of year—that's very unusual, so make sure your wetsuit is thick.
We finally see a glimmer of hope around Saturday, July 12th. The morning sees a light southeast cross-offshore breeze and clean conditions with a 2ft swell from the SW at a long 14 seconds. The combined energy is 406 (moderate wave energy). It's small, but it's clean. The afternoon stays clean with a light east-southeast cross-offshore breeze, though the wave height drops to 2ft. The combined energy eases to 325 (moderate wave energy). It's not big, but these two sessions are the best on offer. For a beginner-friendly reef break like La Push, these are the windows to get some clean, small waves.
Monday, July 13th starts with strong SSE winds at 19 mph, so the morning is a write-off despite the clean cross-offshore wind state—the wind will be howling. The afternoon settles back into clean conditions with a light breeze and 2ft SW swell at 14 seconds (combined energy 223, weak wave energy).
That's about as good as it gets. After that, it's back to small, weak, and messy conditions with cross-onshore winds from the NW through to the end of the forecast period. There's a slight uptick in height around Saturday, July 19th with a 5ft to 6ft swell from the WNW, but the period is short (8-9 seconds) and the wind is cross-onshore, so it'll be choppy and not worth the drive. For the most part, you're waiting for that Saturday the 12th window.
Stay patient, the water is cold, and the waves will clean up for a day or two.
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.
