The Lowdown

G'day, I'm Rusty, and I've got a look at the stretch of coast around Slip Point (Clallam Bay). I'll be straight with you—this is a tough one. The whole 16-day window from August 10th through to August 25th is a complete write-off for paddle surfing. There's not a single session in the forecast that's worth getting wet for.

Every single day, the swell is either non-existent or so tiny it's not even measurable. We're looking at flat spells or miserable little wind bumps that won't break. The combined energy of all swells directed here is zero for every single slot, which is as weak as it gets. The water temperature is sitting at 53°, which is a massive 5° colder than normal for this time of year—that's a seriously unusual drop and will feel freezing.

The first bit of hope shows up on Monday morning, August 10th, but it's a no-go. The wind is offshore from the NW at 6 mph, but there's simply no swell to work with. Tuesday afternoon, August 11th, we get a 0.7 ft ripple from the west with a period of only 3 seconds—that's just wind chop, not a wave. Wednesday morning, August 12th, is glassy, with a NE wind at 3 mph, but again, the ocean is flat.

The pattern just repeats. Every day is a mix of flat, tiny, or choppy conditions. There's a few mornings with clean, cross-offshore winds, like on August 20th and 21st, but the swell is absent. Even when the wind goes glassy again on August 17th, there's nothing to ride. This break is a point break that's fairly exposed to the swell, and it usually needs a solid WNW swell to get going, but we're not getting any.

Forget the surfboard. With the wind consistently blowing onshore or cross-onshore and the ocean flat, this setup honestly looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing. There's simply no surf on offer. It's a long blank run, and while it’s a bummer, it's not unusual for this area to go quiet for a stretch.

Rusty.
