The Lowdown
Alright, partners, Rusty here. Let’s talk about Slip Point (Clallam Bay) for the next couple weeks. I’ll be honest – it’s a dry spell. Real quiet.
Water’s sittin’ at a cold 52°, a full 6° colder than usual for this time of year, so you’ll wanna layer up.
First chance to even think about paddlin’ out comes Wednesday, July 22nd, with a tiny 2ft swell from the WNW, period of 9 seconds, and the energy’s weak (86). Wednesday morning, winds are glassy outta the ENE at 3 mph, so it’s clean, but the waves are still poor. By afternoon, the wind turns onshore from the NW, so get in early.
Thursday the 23rd through the end of July is more of the same: waves around 1ft to 2ft, mostly from the WNW or W, with short periods of 8 to 9 seconds. Winds mostly onshore or cross-onshore from the NW at 6 to 12 mph, choppin’ things up. There’s no real standout day – just a few glassy moments like Saturday the 25th morning with a WNW wind at 3 mph, but the swell’s only 2ft and the energy is a measly 39. Nothin’ to write home about.
There’s a long gap from July 31st through August 4th where most sessions show zero swell and what little shows up is weak. On Tuesday, August 4th afternoon, we get a 2ft swell from the W with a short 7-second period and moderate energy of 51, but the wind’s onshore from the NW at 9 mph, so it’s messy.
The only real window that might give ya a clean, glassy session with any shape is Wednesday morning, July 22nd. It’s the pick of a bad lot, but it’s no standout – just the least bad option. Slip Point is a point break, exposed to WNW swell, and crowds can show up sometimes, so even on a small wave, you might not have it to yourself. It’s for advanced surfers only, so beginners should steer clear.
If you’re into kite surfing, those steady onshore winds and weak little bumps might be more interesting – especially on July 29th afternoon with a 2ft swell and 5-second period, choppy and blowin’ 12 mph from the WNW.
Bottom line: this whole 16-day stretch is a dud. Better days ahead.
Rusty.
