Alright, Rusty here. Let's get into it for Newport - The Peak.
We're starting off quiet, so don't expect much for the first few days. There's a bit of a wait. The first bit of action worth paddling out for is on the morning of Thursday the 9th of July. We've got a clean 7ft swell rolling in from the SE, and a light cross-offshore breeze from the SW is going to keep the face nice. The combined energy of all swells directed here is a solid 873, which is moderate. It’s a reef setup, so it’s advanced-only territory, and with crowds often, you might have to fight for a few. The water temp is sitting around 66°, which is pretty normal for this time of year.
The real standout, the one to circle on your calendar, is Wednesday morning the 15th of July. This isn't just good, it's a proper event. We’re looking at a 13ft southerly groundswell, period hitting 11 seconds, pumping in with a combined energy of 3722 – that's strong to very strong. The wind is a clean offshore from the SW, keeping it clean. This is expert-only territory at that size; if you're not on it, you're watching. It's going to be a special session for those who can handle it.
After that, things get messy and windy again for a few days. But hang in there, because Sunday the 19th of July brings us another cracker. The morning session has a clean 4ft swell from the ESE with a long 13-second period and a light offshore WNW breeze. The energy is moderate at 691. Then, Sunday afternoon turns glassy. Zero wind. Swell picks up to 5ft from the SE with a 12-second period. This is about as clean as it gets. With the long period, this reef break will be lining up perfectly.
To sum it up, the best on offer is the big Wednesday the 15th for the experienced crew, and the glassy Sunday the 19th is a no-brainer for anyone looking for clean lines.
Rusty.

Information about the Newport - The Peak Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Newport - The Peak provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Newport - The Peak can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Newport - The Peak 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 - The Peak) 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 - The Peak 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.
