Westport is Washington's most celebrated surf destination, perched on the southern tip of the Grays Harbor peninsula where powerful North Pacific swells arrive largely unimpeded. The beach faces ENE into the sheltered side of the jetty system, but the outer bars catch long-period northwest and west swells that wrap around to produce punchy, fast-breaking waves with real power. Fall and winter bring the most consistent surf, when cold fronts generate overhead-plus conditions that attract experienced surfers willing to brave the frigid Pacific Northwest waters.
