The Wedge is a heavy spot... don't even think of swimming out unless you are experienced. The city puts their weakest lifeguards there, they are useless, it will be the local crew that has to save your sorry carcass if you get into trouble... so be polite and use your head!

Atmosphère
Wedge brings out the worst in people... kooks come out of the woodwork when its breaking. The place creates a literal feeding-frenzy when there are hundreds of charged people lined-up in the afternoon watching and lenses lining the sand berm... an absolute freak show. If you show up please bring some respect for the locals and those living in the area... keep your trash in the can and your radio low. From May 1st thru Oct 31st Wedge is blackballed to boards from 10:00am to 5:00pm. Don't be a kook, watch, listen and learn.

Général
As heavy a spot as anything on the Mainland. The waves are a by-product of improvements to the groin (rock jetty) on the north side of the Newport Harbor entrance undertaken during the 1930s. When conditions are just right and the waves approach the shore at the proper angle (south swells), an approaching wave will reflect off the groin creating a second wave. The reflected wave meets up with the following wave of the set and forms a peak. Because of this effect, waves at the wedge are often several feet larger than waves at other south facing beaches in Newport on any given day.
