·beach·Newport Beach, CALoading beach details...
Good conditions with 3.3 ft swell energy.
Just north of 54th, 52nd Street serves up slightly bigger, more walled waves that require quick take-offs. The sandy bottom and jetty setup create long walls that are great for experienced surfers who like to race down the line. It works at mid tide and tends to close out on lower tides.
Respect locals and spread out along the beach; take turns and don't block the inside.
Insider tips from local surfers
Sit a bit further out to catch the bigger sets. Aim for the corners of the peaks to get open face before the wave walls up.
