The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's take a long, hard look at what's on the table for Slip Point (Clallam Bay). I gotta be straight with you, it’s a tough stretch.

Right out of the gate, the water is a frigid 52°F, which is a massive 6°F colder than usual for this time of year. That’s not just a little chilly, that’s “where’s my 5/4?” territory. The overall energy is completely flat, with the combined energy at zero for Sunday, July 19th, so we're staring at a few days of absolutely nothing. Not a ripple.

Monday morning, July 20th, we finally see a pulse. Swell picks up to 3ft out of the WNW with an 8-second period. The combined energy is a weak 112, so it’s small and weak, but the wind is light and cross-offshore from the East. The water will look clean. It’s not going to be a world-beater, but it’s rideable.

Things get patchy after that. Tuesday, July 21st has tiny 2ft swell but the wind is all wrong. We do get a decent window on Wednesday morning, July 22nd. It’s glassy with a touch of NE wind, and the swell is a weak but slightly longer 2ft at 9 seconds from the WNW (combined energy 82). It’ll be clean and rideable, but don't expect much push.

Then we hit a long, bleak stretch. From Wednesday afternoon onward through the entire first week of August, it's a real struggle. The swell is tiny—mostly 2ft to 2ft—and the wind is almost constantly onshore from the NW or WNW. The combined energy sinks back down to weak two-digit values. It’s poor surf conditions, day after day.

A quick note on Monday, July 27th: the morning is glassy with a small 2ft W swell (combined energy 58), but it’s still small. The afternoon picks up a little, but it’s still just ordinary.

The only other flicker of hope comes late in the run. Monday morning, August 3rd, we see a 3ft swell out of the west with a 9-second period. The combined energy bumps up to a moderate 154, and the wind is light and cross-offshore from the East. That’s the biggest, cleanest-looking swell of the whole forecast, but it's a long range call. It’s still small and the spot is inconsistent, but that’s your best bet if you can wait that long. This is a point break, and while those longer period swells can be tricky at beach breaks, here it might just shape up nicely with that clean wind.

Overall, the consistency just isn't there. There’s nothing in the first week worth getting excited about, and the second week is just a tease. Keep an eye on that Monday, August 3rd window, but don’t hold your breath on anything before then.
