The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again. Let's break down what we've got for Newport-South Beach over the next couple of weeks.
It's a slow start. From Saturday the 12th, there's a little 0.9m SW swell but with a cross-shore wind and light rain. The water's about 57.4°, which is average for the time of year. Energy is moderate at 498, but conditions are poor, so don't bother.
The weekend and early next week stay small and messy. Swells are mostly under a metre, with cross-shore winds and chop. Monday the 14th morning has a 1.1m NW swell but it's only 8 seconds and cross-onshore. Marginal at best.
Honestly, the first week is a write-off. The one bright spot is Thursday the 17th morning, when it goes glassy with a clean 1.6m NW swell and moderate energy (468). That's the only clean window early on.
Things turn around the following week. The standout is Wednesday the 23rd of September. A solid 1.4m WNW groundswell with a 12-second period, glassy in the morning, and strong energy at 786. The afternoon stays glassy with 1.2m WNW. That's a great day. The break is fairly consistent and crowds are possible, but it’ll be clean and fun.
Thursday the 24th is okay but the wind shifts cross-onshore. Friday and Saturday are choppy again, though Saturday the 26th morning has a brief glassy window with 1.4m NW swell, but only 7 seconds, so it'll be a bit lumpy.
Then Sunday the 27th morning is another winner. Glassy, with a 1.3m WNW groundswell and a very long 13-second period. Energy is pumping at 885. This one’s got power and shape, but the long period might make it a bit straight at the beach break. Still, it’s a proper session.
So, first week is mostly a bust, but the second half has two absolute gems: Wednesday the 23rd and Sunday the 27th. Both with glassy conditions and solid groundswell. Keep your eyes on those.

Information about the Newport-South Beach Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Newport-South Beach provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Newport-South Beach can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu.

If you surf the same spot (Newport-South Beach) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Newport-South Beach may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
