The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s take a look at what’s cookin’ for Newport – The Peak.
First off, the start of the period is a write-off. We’ve got a few days of tiny, weak swell and poor conditions, so don’t even bother paddling out until the end of the week. The first real chance of anything decent hits on Thursday, July 30th.
That Thursday morning, it’s on. Swell pulses up to 7ft from the south, with a period of 9 seconds. The combined energy is strong (1123), and with a light offshore breeze from the west-southwest, it’s gonna be clean. This is proper stuff for experienced surfers only – that size is a handful. Don’t even think about taking a beginner out there.
Friday morning, July 31st, is the real standout. The swell holds at 7ft from the south, period bumps to 10 seconds, and the energy is even bigger (1416). Wind is light offshore from the southwest, keeping it glassy. This is the best on offer – powerful, clean, and all for the advanced crew.
The weekend settles down a bit. Saturday, August 1st, has a smaller 4ft south swell, but the afternoon goes glassy as the wind dies off. That’s your window for a fun, user-friendly session. Sunday morning, August 2nd, brings a longer-period 5ft swell from the south-southeast (12 seconds), with clean conditions and light offshore wind. The energy is moderate (609), and it’ll be a nice, mellow session.
The following week looks mixed. There’s a decent morning on Wednesday, August 5th, with a 6ft swell from the south-southeast, but the period is a super short 6 seconds, so it’ll be a bit crumbly and fat. The wind is glassy in the morning, so it’s worth a look for the fun of it. The real next highlight is Saturday, August 8th, and Sunday, August 9th. Saturday morning delivers a solid 7ft swell from the southeast with a 10-second period, strong energy (755), and a light offshore north wind. That’s a big, clean, exciting session for the experts. Sunday morning is similar but a touch smaller at 6ft, also clean with a light offshore.
After that, the energy drops right off and the wind turns nasty, so the run ends. The second week has a few promising mornings, but all of them are long-range calls, so don’t set your watch by them.
So, to sum it up: the true standout is Friday, July 31st, with that big, clean south swell. Thursday, July 30th, is also a ripper for the experienced crew. The rest is a mixed bag of fun, smaller waves and some strong, expert-only days.
Rusty, out.
