Damon Point is a wide, sandy beach break located on Washington's southwestern coast near Ocean Shores, offering mellow, rolling waves ideal for learning and intermediate progression. The break faces directly westward, capturing Pacific swells that wrap around the point and create surprisingly consistent conditions despite the exposed Pacific shoreline. This relatively uncrowded spot provides a fun, forgiving sand bottom perfect for improving your pop-up and turns in a laid-back beach environment.
Wave heights shown are breaking wave heights — the actual rideable wave size at this spot.
The current wave height at Damon Point is 2ft with a 7s swell period. Wind is NNW at 12mph and conditions are rated Poor. The forecast updates hourly so you can plan your session around the cleanest windows.
The current breaking wave height at Damon Point is 2ft, produced by a 3.1ft WNW primary swell at 7s, a 0.9ft SW secondary swell at 13s, a 0.9ft SW tertiary swell at 15s. Breaking wave height is the actual rideable wave size at the shore — calculated from offshore swell data using this spot's coastal bathymetry — not the raw buoy reading.
Based on the current 5-day forecast, the best window to surf Damon Point is Monday from 12 PM to 3 PM with 4ft waves, a 9.25s swell period, and conditions rated Fair. Check the hourly forecast for updates as conditions can shift.
