La Push, Quillayute River, WA Daily Water Report — August 31, 2026

Today at La Push, surfers are in for a treat with a solid 8/10 suitability score. The waves are rolling in at a consistent 1.22 meters with a decent period of 9.75 seconds, making for some enjoyable rides. With a gentle northwest wind at 5 knots, conditions are favorable for those looking to catch a wave without battling strong gusts. The calmest seas were just after midnight, but the surf remains inviting throughout the day. For boaters and kayakers, the conditions are decent, scoring 6.9 and 6.6 out of 10, respectively. While the wind remains mild, the falling barometric pressure suggests a watchful eye on the horizon is wise. It's a good day for a paddle or a leisurely cruise, but keep an eye on the evening wind gusts peaking at 18.3 knots. Fishing enthusiasts may find today a bit challenging with a 5.8/10 score. The solunar periods offer some promise, particularly between 2:41-4:41 AM and 2:41-4:41 PM, aligning with the high tides. However, the declining barometric pressure might keep the fish a little less active than usual. Wildlife watchers have a decent 6.8/10 score to work with, thanks to favorable solunar timings and manageable winds. While visibility is good at 16.4 km, the 100% cloud cover and high humidity might dampen the spirits slightly. Looking ahead, expect a shift in conditions with increasing wind and rain chances over the next couple of days. By September 2nd, waves could rise to 2.5 meters, so plan accordingly. For those seeking the best water experience today, grab your surfboard and head out to enjoy the waves before the weather takes a turn.
