La Push, Quillayute River, WA Daily Water Report — September 1, 2026

Today at La Push, it's a mixed bag for water enthusiasts, with surfing and diving taking the spotlight. Surfing scores a solid 8/10, thanks to manageable wave heights around 1.22 meters and a rhythmic swell from the northwest. If you're a diver, the visibility and water conditions are favorable, scoring a commendable 7.7/10, despite the high humidity and thick cloud cover. Fishing also gets a decent nod with a 7.5/10 score, especially during the solunar peak periods around dawn and late afternoon. Boaters and kayakers, however, might want to consider alternative plans. With a boating score of 5.1/10 and kayaking at 4/10, the persistent winds gusting up to 18 knots and a lively ocean current could make for a challenging day on the water. The wind is expected to peak later tonight at 26.6 knots, so it's wise to keep an eye on conditions if you're venturing out. Compared to recent days, today's air pressure at 1008 hPa is on a downward trend, which might stir up the waters a bit more than we've seen lately. The sea surface temperature is a balmy 16°C, but with a +2°C anomaly, it's warmer than usual, possibly affecting the local marine life dynamics. Looking ahead, tomorrow promises a stormy turn with a 100% chance of rain and rougher seas as waves climb to 2.6 meters. Conditions will start to improve over the weekend, with calmer seas and lower rain chances. For the best bet today, grab your board and hit the surf. The consistent swell and moderate wave heights make it a prime day for catching some waves at La Push.
