Description
Elwha - Strait of Juan de Fuca
Elwha features a left-breaking rivermouth wave over a flat rock bottom, known for its fast and ledgey characteristics. This spot offers some of the best waves on the Strait, with the potential for long rides, particularly when the swell is right.
Accessing Elwha requires a short walk (5-15 minutes) from Hwy 112, turning north on Place Rd, and following the trail to Dike Rd. While it is illegal to surf on the reservation, crossing the river is generally overlooked by the local tribe. The wave works best at low and mid tide, with optimal conditions during rising and falling tides, and is favored by southwest to southeast winds and northwest to west swells. Expect a few surfers during the week, but it can get crowded on weekends, so be prepared for localism.
