The Lowdown
Alright, crew, Rusty here. Let's break down the next couple of weeks at Newport – The Peak.
We've got a bit of a slow start. The first few days are a total washout with messy, onshore wind and poor conditions. But don't give up, because there's a proper window of swell coming.
The session to save your energy for is Monday, July 20th. The wind goes glassy out of the west, and we're looking at a solid 6ft groundswell from the east-northeast. The wave energy is pumping at 976 (moderate wave energy), and with that 11-second period, it's going to have some real power and shape. This is the one. The water's sitting at 65°, which is perfectly average for this time of year, so no wetsuit worries there.
Tuesday, July 21st, is also a good call. The swell drops a bit to 5ft, but the wind is offshore and light, leaving the waves clean. The energy is still a solid 500 (moderate wave energy), making for a very fun morning.
The surf fades through the middle of the week. Wednesday and Thursday will be a bit of a mess as the wind swings onshore. A new swell tries to push in on Thursday, but it's a short-period, choppy affair.
Friday, July 24th, is another one to watch. The morning brings a clean, cross-offshore breeze and a 7ft south swell with moderate energy (946). It's a bigger wave, but for an advanced spot like The Peak, it's going to be a ripper morning session.
The second week is a lot more sketchy. There's a little bump of energy on the 30th, but it comes with rain and a messy cross-shore wind. The water is still fine, but the consistency drops right off. A bit of hope shows up on Sunday, August 2nd. We get a clean, cross-offshore wind and a clean 4ft easterly swell. The energy is low at 306 (moderate wave energy), but it's a clean, manageable wave for a morning paddle.
The first week is the clear winner. Monday the 20th is the standout. Get in the water when it's good.
Rusty.
