La push and all of the Quileute reservation is just natural beauty. I wish I had more time our there and had learned a little more about the legends. I had questioned about gift shops and was told that since most items are made from long lived tradition that they could not be mass produced which is totally understandable!!

There isn't much to say as this town is even smaller than Forks itself. The best part about it is that it's surrounded by beauty. The beaches are stunning and will mesmorize you. Other than that there really isn't much to do here so unless you are in to nature or hiking this probably isn't the place for you.

We went to First beach, it was gorgeous. Lots of great photo ops. We drove around a little bit, sad to see the poverty on the reservation. We didn't encounter any locals. I would return to explore second, and third beach which you had to hike to get to.

My group spent all day on The Quileute Reservation! A few of us took a boat tour to the Giants Grave Yard 1.5 miles off La Push. We had a bonfire and just enjoyed being outside. You must stop here....and try to go during Quileute Days!

Coming from the Gulf Coast in Alabama I know beautiful beaches, but I was completely captivated by First Beach in LaPush. The huge driftwoods along the beach were beautiful. You get to see the beach in its natural state which made it special for me. We were only there for an hour but would like to go back and spend... More

The ocean is magnificent and very accessible. We visited on a partly sunny afternoon in November and had the place to ourselves. Huge waves and amazingly large driftwood. A highlight.

Not a lot to do. Was there 25 years ago and just wanted to see if they had made improvements to the area. Which they did! Beach was small but clean and not over crowded. Lots of fishing boats bit and small

We visited many places on the reservation, from LaPush and the Marina and the many beaches. Our favorite part though was buying fresh smoked salmon from the people. One man sells directly from his home in LaPush, just follow the homemade signs into town. Don't be put off by the appearance of his smoker and home, the fish is wonderful!!... More

Fortunately, we arrived during their annual festival, so we got to taste salmon cooked over alderwood and speak with many of the very friendly locals. We were invited into a home to look at some beautiful native-American art. Just ask where Jill lives.
