Celebrating New Year’s Eve in coastal towns like Newport and Rockaway Beach can be a delightful experience, offering a mix of coastal charm and festive celebrations.
While specific events may vary each year, here are some ideas for ringing in the New Year in Newport and Rockaway Beach:
Dining at Local Restaurants
Many restaurants may offer special New Year’s Eve menus or events. Consider making reservations in advance to secure a spot at a waterfront eatery or a place with a festive atmosphere. If you are looking for something a little more upscale, we love Zach’s Bistro and Clearwater Restaurant in Newport. Sand Dollar in Rockaway offers fresh seafood with a great view in a more casual setting.

New Year’s Eve Parties

Watch the Sunset
Newport and Rockaway Beach’s coastal location provides an opportunity to enjoy a beautiful sunset over the glimmering Pacific Ocean. Find a scenic spot, perhaps a beach or a viewpoint, to witness the last sunset of the year.
New Year’s Resolution Run & Polar Plunge
Some coastal communities, including Newport, have a tradition of hosting New Year’s polar plunges where brave individuals take a chilly dip in the ocean. It can be a fun and invigorating way to start the new year.
Quiet Beach Time
If you prefer a more serene celebration, consider building a bonfire on the sandy beaches of Rockaway and taking a quiet stroll on the beach as the clock strikes midnight. The sound of the ocean waves and the fresh sea air can be a peaceful way to welcome the new year.
