La Push is a raw and powerful surf destination on the Olympic Peninsula in Washington, set against a dramatic backdrop of sea stacks, old-growth forest, and the rugged Pacific coastline of the Quileute Nation's ancestral lands. The beach picks up abundant northwest and west swells generated by North Pacific storms, producing heavy, punchy beach break waves that can range from playful to seriously powerful depending on the swell. Its remote location and challenging conditions keep crowds minimal, rewarding adventurous surfers willing to make the journey with uncrowded, world-class cold-water surf.
