Newport Beach- The Wedge
8.8 • Tourist attraction
Secluded beach with tons of sand and fewer beachgoers offers a quiet spot for walking and watching surf. Waves grow huge from the constructive interference of straight-in and ricocheted waves off the jetty. Street parking is easier to find due to location away from main areas.
