Wauna, OR Daily Water Report — August 29, 2026

Today's water conditions in Wauna, Oregon are a dream for those who prefer their aquatic activities on the calmer side. With a boating score of 9.2/10, it's an excellent day to take the boat out. The wind is a gentle 4 knots from the WNW, with gusts peaking early at 17.5 knots, but generally staying well within a manageable range. The ocean is exceptionally calm, with wave heights and swells both sitting at an unusual 0 meters. This stillness extends to the wind waves and current, making it a perfect day for kayaking, which scores an impressive 8.6/10. Diving enthusiasts will find the day favorable as well, with a score of 8/10, thanks to the calm conditions and a water temperature of 15.6°C—slightly warmer than average by 1.5°C. While fishing scores a respectable 7/10, the lack of tide data means anglers should rely on solunar periods and the rising barometric pressure for their best chances. The major solunar periods between 1:06 AM and 3:06 AM, and again from 1:06 PM to 3:06 PM, offer promising windows. Surfing, however, is not the star today, holding steady at 4.5/10, unchanged from recent days. The total lack of swell and waves leaves surfers without much to ride. Sailors might find the day a bit underwhelming as well, with a score of 6.3/10, as the wind lacks the consistency needed for an exciting sail. Looking ahead, the weather remains pleasant with minimal chances of precipitation until September 2nd, when rain is expected to make a more significant appearance. For those seeking the best experience today, a leisurely paddle or a serene boat ride under the full moonlit sky is the way to go.
