The Lowdown
Alright, surfers, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you: the next couple of weeks at Newport-South Beach are looking pretty average. The swell is coming, but the wind is gonna be a constant headache, keeping things mostly messy. We’ve got a long run of poor conditions ahead, though there are a couple of windows where it might just be worth a look.
First up, this Tuesday morning (28th July). We’re seeing a solid groundswell out of the SW at 2.6 ft, but with a very long 16-second period. The combined energy is moderate (710), but the wind is cross-on from the WSW at 6 mph. The vibe is marginal, with small wind ripples on the surface. It’s not gonna be pretty, but for a beginner spot, it’s probably the most manageable it’ll be all week. The water temp is about average for the time of year, so the wetsuit will feel fine.
The rest of the week through to the weekend is a write-off. The wind stays stubbornly cross-on or cross, and the swell, while holding some energy, gets chopped up by the breeze. Consistent Thursday and Friday mornings might offer a glimmer, but the forecast calls it marginal at best.
We hit a bigger, more powerful pulse around the 5th of August. Wednesday morning (5th August) sees the swell jump to 6.9 ft from the NW, but the period is a short, weak 8 seconds. The combined energy is moderate (568), but the wind is light cross-on at 6 mph. This is a tricky one. The size is solid, maybe too big for beginners, and the short period will make it dumpy and fast. It’s expert territory, but the wind is light enough that it might clean up for a few hours. This is the best the whole forecast period has to offer, but it’s not a guarantee.
After that, the wind stays on it, and the swell drops back. The 11th and 12th of August show a return of some longer period energy (15 seconds) from the W, but the swell is tiny (2.3 ft) and the wind is still cross. The combined energy is moderate (588) but the size is just too small for any real fun.
Honestly, this is a tough run. The wind is the enemy. If you’re desperate, the 28th and the 5th are your only real shots. Everything else is a battle with the chop. The setup here looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing on most of these days.
Stay salty.
