Additional Surfing Infos |
| | Metered parking, free in winter, right at the wall, steps down every few blocks or so. The Wall is normally larger than anywhere else. Easy to access so it's more crowded, too, but the vibe is mellow, lots of beginners, scattered peaks. At size it's a pretty demanding paddle out, just wave after wave, and closes out a lot. But when it's big, you'll be out there alone or with only a few.

Overview |
| |
Atmosphere |
Check the Surfline picture of Hampton, classic wave, it really can get epic, but it's rare. The guys who surf here are cool, hardcore cold water nutcases. Did I mention cold water? I wear booties even in the summer because the walk back over the rocks after a sess can be painful with numb feet. |
| |
General |
Fun place, if you get lucky and catch it good, enjoy it while it lasts. Visit Dave at Cinnamon Rainbows Surf Shop at the north end of the Wall. He rents boards and kayaks and has a great shop and is a cool guy. |

Surf first, work later
First of all, Wes was the one who came up with this plan. It was he who saw the full 3 star report for Thursday on Magicseaweed.com.So, that night at 11:30pm, I packed up the wagon and slept at a highway rest-stop on the border of NH. Woke up at 5:30
