**Westport** represents Washington's "Surf City" and most consistent destination rated 8/10. Three distinct breaks: (1) The Jetty/Corner at Westhaven State Park produces righthander points off South Jetty (intermediate-advanced); (2) Half Moon Bay/The Cove—protected crescent inside harbor entrance, hollow and fast when large (advanced-only); (3) The Groins—five rock jetties north of marina.

Wave character

Multiple breaks in one zone: The Groins shape lefts at low tide. The Jetty/Corner produces righthand points for intermediates. Half Moon Bay is hollow and fast — advanced only. Bring boards for different conditions.

Best conditions

Mid to low tide, E-SE wind, 4-8 ft W-WNW groundswell. Washington's most consistent surf — works on almost any W swell.

Westport – Half Moon Bay (The Cove)
beach
advanced

Once a favourite for advanced surfers, Half Moon Bay has become a dangerous shorebreak after sand redistribution. Powerful waves and currents mean it's now rarely surfed, best watched from shore.

Wave character

Only experienced surfers should consider paddling out on moderate days. Otherwise, enjoy the view and photograph the heavy shorebreak from a safe distance.

Best conditions

Mid tide, E wind, 4-8 ft W-NW swell

**Westport** represents Washington's "Surf City" and most consistent destination rated 8/10. Three distinct breaks: (1) The Jetty/Corner at Westhaven State Park produces righthander points off South Jetty (intermediate-advanced); (2) Half Moon Bay/The Cove—protected crescent inside harbor entrance, hollow and fast when large (advanced-only); (3) The Groins—five rock jetties north of marina.

Wave character

Five rock groins funnel swell into defined channels, producing mainly lefts. Best around low tide with 6+ ft NW swell. The Corner is the intermediate option; Half Moon Bay goes hollow on big days. Rocky hazards throughout.

Best conditions

Low tide, S wind, 6+ ft NW-W groundswell. The Groins fire when size gets overhead and wind swings south.

Westport – The Groins
jetty
upper-intermediate

Located on the north side of the marina, The Groins provides a lefthand point break when swells wrap into Grays Harbor. It's not a beginner spot due to powerful tidal currents flowing in and out of the harbor.

Wave character

Wait for a mid tide with a wraparound west swell; then drop in on the left peeling along the rocks. Strong paddling skills are required to handle the currents.

Best conditions

Mid tide, E wind, 4-8 ft W-NW swell

Westport – The Jetty
beach
intermediate

Washington's most consistent surf spot features A-frame peaks on a sand bottom. Beginners and pros share the lineup, but a strong rip current runs along the jetty; surfers should stay 50 yards south.

Wave character

Look for A-frame peaks and position yourself to catch both lefts and rights. Rips can help you paddle out but watch for surfers returning on them.

Best conditions

Mid tide, E wind, 4-8 ft W-NW swell
