The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's cooking for the next couple of weeks.

Honestly, it's a tough stretch. The forecast is looking pretty grim for a solid week, with nothing really worth paddling out for. The water is also shockingly cold – 53°F, which is over 5 degrees colder than it should be for this time of year. That's a real anomaly and will feel like a kick in the guts.

The first few days at Newport-South Beach are a write-off. Tuesday afternoon, we've got a tiny 2ft SW swell with a long 16-second period, but it's cross-on and choppy. The combined energy is weak (380). Wednesday and Thursday offer nothing better, with the same small swell and messy conditions. Friday morning sees a jump in combined energy (537) from a 2ft SW groundswell with a very long 24-second period, but the score is still low. That long period might make it a bit too straight for this beach break anyway.

The whole first week, from 21 July right through to the end of the month, is a washout. We're looking at a long gap of poor to marginal surf with choppy, cross-onshore winds. There's nothing to get excited about.

The second week kicks off in August, but it's not much better. The swell picks up a bit – we're seeing 4ft to 7ft of NW windswell with a short, weak period of 7 to 8 seconds. The combined energy gets into the moderate range (304 to 740), but the wind is a mess, mostly cross or cross-on. On 3 August, the swell is 7ft to 7ft, which is getting into expert-only territory, but with those short periods and choppy winds, it's just a lumpy mess. It's looking more like a kite-surfing setup than a paddle-surfing one.

The only glimmer comes right at the tail end. On the morning of 5 August, we get a tiny pulse of 2ft from the W with a 15-second period and light, almost glassy winds. It's a very small window, and the combined energy is low (371), but at least it might be clean for a second. The afternoon then goes back to the wind and chop.

So, there's no standout here. It's a blank run. The forecast can change, but as it stands, you're better off doing something else for a fortnight.

Rusty.

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. Our Newport-South Beach surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. 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.
