The Lowdown
Alright, let’s get into it. Rusty here, looking at the next couple of weeks for Newport – The Peak.
Right now, we’re in a bit of a flat spell. The first solid window doesn’t kick off until Friday morning, July 31st, so you’ll have to sit tight through Thursday.
Friday morning, July 31st, we’ve got a 6ft south swell rolling in with a period of 10 seconds. The wind is light and cross-offshore out of the southwest, keeping things clean. The combined energy is moderate (619), and it’s looking like really good shape out there. This is a reef setup, so the longer-period groundswell will hold up nicely. Crowds are often here, so get in early. That’s your standout for the week.
Saturday morning, August 1st, drops a little to 5ft south swell, but still clean with a light cross-off. Sunday morning, August 2nd, is where it gets interesting again: a solid 5ft swell from the SSE, but with a very long 13-second period. Combined energy hits 999 – that’s strong, deep water energy. The wind is light and cross-off from the north, so it’ll be glassy. That’s another real standout, especially for an advanced break like this. The long period means it’ll have plenty of push and shape, but you’ll want to watch the longer lulls between sets.
Monday the 3rd fades to 3ft, still clean, then Tuesday the 4th drops right off – barely anything. The energy dips into the 30s and 100s, so a couple of flat days.
Wednesday afternoon, August 5th, things perk up again with a 6ft south swell, 10-second period, and glassy conditions – just a light southwest breeze. The combined energy is solid at 551, and it’s looking very good.
After that, the surf gets smaller and pretty ordinary through to the middle of the month. A few clean mornings with waist-high waves, but nothing to write home about.
Then we get a bit of a wildcard on Friday morning, August 14th – a 10ft south swell with a 9-second period and combined energy of 1186. That’s strong and powerful, but it comes with a marginal tide and a cross shore wind in the afternoon. For experts only at that size – it’ll be pushing big and raw, especially on a reef. Not for the faint-hearted, and definitely not for beginners.
Water temp is sitting at a normal 65° for the time of year – nothing out of the ordinary for the Peak.
All up, the standout mornings are Friday July 31st and Sunday August 2nd. Get on ’em early.
Rusty.
