Wauna, OR Daily Water Report — August 30, 2026

Today in Wauna, it's a fantastic day for boating and kayaking, with scores of 8.9 and 8 out of 10, respectively. The calm, mirror-like waters are a boater's dream, as wave heights are at an unprecedented flat zero meters. Winds are mild, peaking at 11.9 knots later in the evening, but generally hovering around 6 knots from the WNW. This makes for smooth sailing conditions and minimal resistance for paddlers. Fishing is also appealing today with a solid score of 7.8 out of 10. The solunar major period from 1:50 PM to 3:50 PM offers a promising window for those casting lines, with the waning gibbous moon at 97% illumination potentially adding a touch of luck. While the barometric pressure is on a slight decline from 1016 hPa, it’s not enough to deter a good catch. Surfers, however, might want to sit this one out. With no swell and waves at a standstill, the surfing score stagnates at 4.5 out of 10, unchanged from previous days. If you’re determined to get on a board, you might need to practice your paddling rather than riding the non-existent waves. Divers can enjoy an 8 out of 10 experience, thanks to the calm conditions and a decent sea surface temperature of 15.6°C, slightly warmer than usual. Wildlife enthusiasts have a 7 out of 10 day, with solunar timings suggesting some potential activity, though the lack of tide data might make sightings a bit of a gamble. Looking ahead, temperatures are set to rise tomorrow, with a chance of rain creeping in later in the week. For those planning future outings, keep an eye on September 2nd, which promises a significant 94% chance of rain—best to make the most of today’s fair skies and placid waters.
