Welcome to Newport, Washington
The City of Newport, with a population of 2,114 is located on the Washington/Idaho border just west of the Pend Oreille River. With a comfortable elevation of 2,160 feet, Newport is a city that provides a unique experience of four distinct seasons.
We are less than an hour’s drive north of Spokane, which has an International airport for easy access to our city.
