The Lowdown

Alright folks, Rusty here. Take a look at this forecast for Newport - The Peak. It’s a bit of a slow burner, but there’s some real quality hiding in the second week if you’ve got the patience and the right board.

First things first, the water temp is sitting at 65°, which is pretty much bang on average for the time of year, so no surprises there.

The first few days are a write-off. Tuesday and Wednesday mornings are tiny or messy, with a brief pulse on Wednesday pushing 8ft (moderate wave energy at 1155) but it's got cross-off and cross winds spoiling the party, plus a short period of 10 seconds. That’s a lot of water moving around but not much shape for the average punter. Honestly, Thursday through Saturday look like a kite surfer’s dream more than a paddle surfer’s—strong cross-shore winds and choppy faces. It’s a flat spell in terms of quality.

Now, the real story starts to build from Monday the 20th. The morning is still a bit meh, but by Monday afternoon, we get a glassy window with a solid 6ft of swell from the ENE at 10 seconds (685 combined energy). That’s the first proper clean session on offer, and it’s a good one for getting a few turns in.

The standout window is the morning of Thursday the 23rd. The Peak (Newport) will be firing with a clean 7ft of swell from the E, a long period of 12 seconds, and a light offshore breeze. The combined energy hits 1084, which is strong. This is groundswell, and at a reef setup like this, it’ll line up beautifully. That’s a session for experienced surfers only—it’s too big for beginners. The crowds can be common here, so get there early.

Then, the following week just keeps delivering. Friday morning the 24th and Saturday the 25th both have clean, offshore conditions with 5ft to 6ft of long-period E swell. The consistency is good, and the energy is still strong (900+). It’s a long run of quality surf that’s very promising, though being a week and a half out, treat it as a solid bet rather than a locked-in certainty.

The final few days of the month taper off a bit, but the mornings of the 27th and 28th still offer clean, waist-to-chest high waves with a light offshore tickle. It’s a solid end to the outlook.

So, bottom line: the first week is a washout, but from the 20th onwards, the Peak has some absolute crackers, with the 23rd and 24th being the pick of the bunch. Patience pays.

Rusty.
