The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cooking for Newport - The Peak.

First up, we’ve got a bit of a slow start, but don’t let that fool you. The real action is kicking off Sunday the 26th of July. We’re looking at a solid 7ft south swell rolling in with an 11-second period, which is a nice, long groundswell. The combined energy is sitting at 921 (moderate wave energy), and with a clean cross-off breeze from the WSW at 9 mph, the morning session is looking prime. This is a reef break, so that long period will wrap in nicely, and it’s an advanced spot, so you’ll want your wits about you. The water temp is about average for this time of year, nothing wild. The only bummer is that crowds are often here, so get in early.

By Sunday afternoon, the swell drops to 6ft, the wind shifts onshore, and the quality dives. It’s a no-go for the arvo.

Monday the 27th of July has a much smaller 4ft south swell, but the wind goes glassy in the morning. That’s a major positive for clean lines. The period is a shorter 9 seconds, and the energy is low at 239 (weak), so it’s more of a fun, cruisy session for the advanced crew. The afternoon gets messy with a cross-on wind, so stick to the morning.

Tuesday the 28th of July is a write-off. The swell drops to 2ft and the energy is a paltry 41 (weak). Not worth paddling out. We’re in a dead zone until Thursday the 30th of July.

Now, Thursday the 30th of July is where things get serious. The morning brings a 10ft south-southwest swell with a 10-second period. The combined energy is a massive 2544 (strong wave energy). That’s a big, powerful swell, and it’s clean under a cross-off breeze. But let’s be real – 10ft at this reef is expert territory only. The tide might be a factor, so keep an eye on it. The afternoon is a bit smaller at 8ft, but the cross-on wind chops it up.

Friday the 31st of July is another big one. A 10ft south swell with 10 seconds and energy at 2987 (very strong) in the morning. Clean cross-off wind again. This is the standout for the big-wave hunters. The afternoon gets gnarly with a cross-shore wind and 8ft, making it messy.

The weekend of the 1st and 2nd of August continues with decent size. Saturday the 1st has a 7ft south swell in the morning, but the wind is a cross-off, keeping it clean. The energy is 666 (moderate). Sunday the 2nd of August is a real gem: a 6ft south-southeast swell with an 11-second period, clean offshore wind from the west at 3 mph, and energy at 996 (moderate). The morning will be glassy perfection.

After that, the swell fades again. Monday the 3rd of August has a 5ft south-east swell, clean but weaker. From Tuesday the 4th of August through to Saturday the 8th of August, it’s a long stretch of small, weak, or onshore junk. The energy drops to two-digit figures (72, 48, 40). There’s a brief glimmer on Sunday the 9th of August with a 3ft south-southeast swell and 10-second period, clean under a light cross-off breeze, but it’s small. The final notable day is Monday the 10th of August, with a 8ft south swell, but the cross-shore wind and 8-second period make it a messy, scrappy affair.

The best on offer: The mornings of Thursday the 30th of July and Friday the 31st of July are the true standouts for the big, confident surfer. If you want something a bit more manageable but still world-class clean, hit the morning of Sunday the 2nd of August.

Rusty.
