The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here with the outlook for Slip Point (Clallam Bay). Let’s be straight up – this is a tough stretch. We’re looking at a 16-day window starting now, and for the first nine days it’s a total write-off. From Monday the 24th right through to Tuesday the 1st of September, you’ll hardly see a ripple worth paddling for. Most of that time, the combined energy is zero (0) and the comments are all “poor surf conditions.” There are a few tiny pulses – like 2ft and 2ft from the west with weak energy – but the winds are cross or onshore, just junk.

The water here is running much colder than normal for this time of year, about 54°, that’s a big 5° anomaly, so expect a serious sting in the suit.

Wednesday the 2nd of September we start to see a little life. Afternoon bump from the west at 2ft, period 9 seconds, energy up to 83 (moderate), but the wind is a gentle cross-onshore from the west at 15 km/h, making it chopped up. Not a goer.

Then Thursday the 3rd of September is the only spot in the whole forecast that even gets a nod. Morning session, light rain, wind from the ESE at 5 km/h – that’s cross-offshore and light, giving clean conditions. Swell is 2ft from the west, 10-second period, energy at 80 (moderate). The comment says “surfable waves but very ordinary conditions” which is the best we get. It’s tiny, but with that clean cross-off wind it might just hold a little shape. Afternoon that day goes glassy with the rain, but the swell drops to 2ft.

For the rest of the run into the 8th of September, it’s more of the same – tiny, weak swells (1ft to 2ft, energy mostly below 57) and either glassy mornings or choppy afternoons. Even with a few longer-period swells around 11-13 seconds, the size is just too small to do anything with at this fairly exposed point. The optimum swell is from the WNW, and we do see that direction a few times, but the height is barely ankle-knee deep.

Honestly, if you’re itching to get wet, the morning of Thursday the 3rd is the only real chance, and even then it’s a long shot. Otherwise, this is a blank run. The consistent lack of proper swell and the poor quality winds just kill it. For beginners, nothing here is above 5ft anyway, so no worry there, but there’s also nothing to ride.

No standouts. Just a lot of sitting on the beach watching the horizon.
