The North Newport River is a 26-mile-long (42 km)[1] tidal river in Liberty County in the U.S. state of Georgia. It rises just west of Interstate 95, 15 miles (24 km) south of Richmond Hill, and flows generally east-southeast to its mouth at the Medway River and St. Catherines Sound on the Atlantic Ocean.[2][3]
