Don't even think about surf launching any where near balboa pier, you'll kill yourself. Just surf fishing near there in the past let myself know not to even try that once I got my kayak. I just find parking on the streets closest to any spot inside the harbor.

Coast guard station across the harbor is where most of us launch from in newport. Plenty of parking, bathrooms, shower and hose to wash of your kayak!

Sweet, thanks. What's the cost of parking over there?

Free parking.
