Because of the remote location of La Push, the Quileute have built a tourism industry that serves those seeking a relaxing getaway or a rejuvenating adventure. The tribe’s Oceanside Resort along First Beach offers ocean-view accommodations ranging from luxurious to rustic. Those who visit La Push come for whale watching in the spring; surfing, fishing, and hiking in the summer; and storm watching in the fall and winter.

The Quileute Tribe is located in La Push, Washington, on the shores
of the Pacific Ocean The Quileute Tribes have lived and hunted in this
area for thousands of years. Although the village of La Push is only
about one-square mile, the tribe’s original territory stretched along
the shores of the Pacific from the glaciers of Mount Olympus to the
rivers of rain forests. Much has changed since those times, but
Quileute Elders remember “back in the days” When the “old people” dared
challenge kwalla, the mighty whale, and recounted the story of how the
bayak (raven) placed the sun in the sky.
