Westport - The Groins is one of the more reliable surf spots along Washington’s Pacific coast, largely due to the man-made rock jetties at Grays Harbor. This place offers a mix of surf options that can attract a good number of surfers, especially since it’s one of the few publicly-accessible beaches here. You’ll find the Groins situated near the jetties, which help to create somewhat consistent waves compared to the surrounding featureless coastline.
This spot is best when the swell is coming from the SouthWest but can also handle some NorthWest swells. It can work well with swell sizes starting from 1 ft (about 0.3 meters) and breaks over sand, which is a plus for those who don’t like rocks. You’re likely to find mostly left beachbreak peaks, though there are some decent right waves too. For the best experience, low to mid-tides are preferred, while high tides can also be manageable, especially with challenging rip currents. Remember, conditions can change quickly here; perfect waves can transition to rough rips or flat spots in less than an hour, so keep an eye on the tide.
Accessing the beach is pretty straightforward, but parking can fill up, especially on good surf days. Expect to share the waves, as it can get crowded. Just be friendly and wait your turn out there. Whether you’re an intermediate surfer or just looking to enjoy a fun day at the beach, The Groins offers a solid experience for all level surfers willing to tackle the conditions.
