Washington State Surf Forecast map for predicting the best wave and wind conditions across the region. For surfers, the map shows the most powerful swell tracking across near-shore open water and not the peak waves experienced by boats out at sea. Move your mouse over the ocean swell symbols or the surf breaks on the coastline to see a more detailed surf forecast including wave period and wind conditions. The forecast updates every 6 hours and most live weather reports update every hour. You can animate the Washington State Surf map or show live wind and wave conditions as reported from wavebuoys and local weather stations. Surf breaks shown along the Washington State coastline are also listed below.

Washington has plenty of breaks to explore.....the problem is getting to them. The state has in place several property laws where large parts of the coastline are privately owned. The road network consists mainly of small side roads and trails down to many of the beaches. Mainly beach breaks. Cold water all year round so bring a winter wetsuit (4/3 and up).
