Start off by heading down atlantic, you should come to a stop sign. Make a right and drive less than 500ft and park in the North Hampton Beach parking lot. Looking out at the ocean you should see a rocky jetty type island, but it isnt connected to the beach. Have to go out on a high tide and has to have big swells to be fun.

You have to go when its big, if it isn't then you should just surf the wall. Fun, but dont fall.
Atmosphere
The atmosphere is great. You get a one on one feeling with nature. Just you and the wave, and the occasional sea gull that sits on the island and watches you surf.
General
You are pretty much all alone when surfing here. Scary at first but soon turns into a totally epic time. Sometimes you will get a friend to come or meet someone. You earn respect if you go and surf there.

seen it go off - I was surfing north beach, and a few guys paddled out to surf this wave. It was WAY too much for me, but it looked sick. If you are good at surfing give it a shot. (if you're wondering if you are good enough, you are not).

When the swell peaks is when you'll find Freak's! - My bro's & I have always been on top of this situation; whenever it goes nuclear. It simply needs a 'freak' monster swell to generate some bomb-a$$ peaks!!
