Experience one of Newport Beach’s most powerful stretches of coastline, where incoming swells can create massive waves just steps from the shore.
Located at the eastern end of the Balboa Peninsula, The Wedge is known for its powerful shorebreak and dramatic waves created as incoming swells interact with the nearby harbor jetty. On larger swell days, it becomes one of Newport Beach’s most striking coastal scenes, drawing experienced watermen and spectators to watch the ocean at its most intense.
