Alright, this is Rusty, and I’ve got the goods for Newport – The Peak.
We’ve got a slow start here, with not much happening in the first few days. The swell is tiny and weak, and it’s not worth getting wet until the middle of next week. On Wednesday the 15th, the size jumps up but the wind is howling cross-shore and there’s rain around – it’s messy. It starts to clean up on Saturday morning the 18th, with a light cross-off breeze and a fun 1.4m easterly swell that has some shape.
The real standout is Sunday the 19th. That morning is glassy – zero wind – with a solid 2.5m easterly swell. This is clean, powerful, and for experienced surfers only. The combined energy is massive at 2784, so there’s plenty of power behind it. Water temp is about average for the time of year at 66°, nothing unusual there.
Into Monday the 20th, the wind shifts offshore from the WNW, keeping it clean, and the swell holds at 2.5m with a longer 12-second period. This is proper groundswell, giving you long, well-shaped waves. Crowds are likely at The Peak when it’s this good.
The following weekend, Saturday the 25th and Sunday the 26th, sees another run of decent conditions. Saturday afternoon has a 1.9m ESE swell with clean conditions, and Sunday the 26th brings a lighter 1.6m easterly with a clean offshore wind. Solid options for the second week.
So, the first few days are a bust, but that glassy Sunday the 19th is the one to circle – it’s for the experienced crew only.
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.
