Hobuck Beach is a stunning and relatively uncrowded surf spot nestled on the northwest tip of Washington's Olympic Peninsula, within the Makah Reservation near Cape Flattery. Facing NNE toward the open Pacific, it picks up powerful northwest and west swells that wrap into the bay, producing consistent beach break waves with punchy peaks across a wide sandy shoreline. Its remote location and rugged old-growth surroundings make it one of Washington's most scenic and adventurous surf destinations, rewarding those willing to make the journey.
