| - | Bellingham is not really known for surf because it is completely protected from ocean swell, but occassionally when there is very strong wind there can be some noticeable surf at Marine Park ([[https://youtu.be/XmEBifLrTIU|video]]) or at the [[:bham_bay_launches#upper_bay|north end of the bay]] at places like Squalicum Beach. A little farther away folks sometimes surf in Birch Bay and others report decent surf on the shore north of Gooseberry Pt. when large swell comes from the north down the Strait of Georgia. | + | Bellingham is not really known for surf because it is completely protected from ocean swell, but occasionally when there is very strong wind there can be some noticeable surf at Marine Park ([[https://youtu.be/XmEBifLrTIU|video]]) or at the [[:bham_bay_launches#upper_bay|north end of the bay]] at places like Squalicum Beach.

| In recent past there were no surfski rental businesses in Bellingham. But as of 2023 check with [[https://www.pacificnorthsports.com/|Pacific North Sports]] for Epic surfski rental options. Or you might be able to work something out with one of the local paddlers…(vacation swap - exchange for use of yours?). Get a membership on [[https://groups.io/g/Whatcompaddlers/|Whatcom paddlers]] then post your request. | In recent past there were no surfski rental businesses in Bellingham.
