you can park along the street. Theres a long strip of street you can park on. I was told that there is a lot that parks about 9 or so cars in the lot to access the beach. Most like it there because theres alot of harbor patrol that drive in and out of there and they feel alot safer with their cars parked there.

Coast Guard station does have roughly 9 or 10 spots that are for beach parking. Hours on the signs in front of each spot say beach hours from 6 a.m. to 4 p.m. I have had no problems so far getting in there at 5 a.m. The important thing is to be as quiet as possible with your unloading and conversation. There are dwellings less than 10 feet from the parking and all it takes in Newport is a phone call from the upper crust of Newport to put a stop to that. Wheels for your yak is advised for this location as it is about 100 yards of so to the water.

i looked at this Newport Harbor place on a detailed map.

IT IS HUGE.... there is SOOOO MUCH water.

the huge Harbor, plus the big Bay up North of the Harbor, plus the ocean outside of the Harbor.

when u guys fish this area.....

do u stay inside the Harbor ?

or do you also fish up in the Bay ?

or do you also go outside the Harbor, to the open ocean ?

do all of these areas produce fish ?

just curious.
