    I surf in Westport every time i visit family there, 1-2x a year usually. I've found I either get incredibly fun, uncrowded waves with sun and offshore winds, or it's completely blown out for the entire week I'm there. No in-between. It's amazing when good, but not ridable when it's not.

      It's too cold to be surfing in Wesport. The water is not warm.

      I have tried West Port three times over the last 5 years or so, and I always see the 'unride-able' blown out version. (School of hard knocks when I"m in the water, but a good test for my wetsuit.) I think Westport is not worth the drive unless you purposely plan your trip around the weather and swell forecast within 2 or 3 days, or less. Because the wind is brutal out there most of the time. And it seems low-tide is not beginner friendly, but high-tide might be.

    I love everything about surfing in Washington. Cold, fickle, gorgeous and always rewarding.

    looks like surfing in the northeast except in Washington the water is warmer, the waves are better, its not as windy and its less crowded

      I don't think the water is much warmer in Washington. Our water temperature is usually around 48-52° F

    Does anyone take a boat to surf the off limits areas near the reservations?

      No, I do my best to respect the treaty rights and sovereignty of the local indigenous tribes. I suggest you do the same, you King County Liberal.

    I grew up in WA. Live in SoCal since 86’. They can have each and every rideable set wave that happens as often as the eclipse.

      Protiip though, I bought my Patagucci wetsuits used on eBay, $120...instead of $550. Aside from the dumb brand name , the R4 lined hooded fullsuits are super warm!

    Why are u bringing in climate change at the end? You are the one driving an old ford at 80$ in gas one way. Just so u can catch 3 waves.
