| - | * **[[:deception_pass|Deception Pass]]** - South of Bellingham across Whidbey Island. Look for ebb tide (if you don't won't to work against max current try to aim for one of the shoulders of the ebb and not the peak) Pass laps can work with wind anywhere from Northwest to Southwest. West end laps open up more with South winds. Fairly mild wind can generate surprising waves. | + | * [[https://windisgood.com/|BigWaveDave]] Vancouver Island & BC |

| - | * **[[:ambleside|Ambleside Surf Laps ]]**- Looking for West (or close to West) winds blowing against ebb tides (tidal current going East to West). As with Deception Pass you will have to paddle harder against the tidal current closer to max ebb. | + | * **[[:birch_bay|Birch Bay]]** |
