Additional Surfing Infos |
| | When looking at the beach there are a set of rocks to the left. June through August there are life guards from 9am - 4pm and you will need to stay on either side of the flags. Parking is metered during summer months and heavily enforced from 10am - 6pm. Street parking is free and there are plenty of spots. A few side roads also offer parking.
|
| |
Overview |
| |
Atmosphere |
Mix of old and young surfers. Can become heavily crowded during summer months with vacationers. Longboard, shortboard, hybrids all come here. Majority of Jenness locals are real nice and willing to share waves. Wallies (Wall Surfers) sometimes venture north during high tide and break becomes more crowded. Beach is about a mile long, so plenty of room to spread out, no need to crowd around break in front of parking lot. |
| |
General |
Spot is great for beginners -> advanced. Better vibe and more laid back than other NH spots. Plenty of room for all surfers. Can hold a swells of up to 6' - 7' before closeouts start to occur. |

Unexpected goodness
Fun little session after rainstorm rolled through. Very few others out and had 3' clean waves coming through in sets. Wind had died down to nothing leaving conditions glassy. Jenness isn't the most consistent or largest break in New Hampshire

Caught a few decent waves early in the session. Got tired quickly due to wind.
Pretty crowded for a March afternoon, a lot of young guys on longboards which
surprised me. Expected mo
