Rye on the Rocks surf guide

Rye on the Rocks, often shown on maps as Bass Beach, is a popular surf spot in New Hampshire. It features unique wave conditions that draw surfers looking for something different. The wave here can change a lot depending on the tide, making it essential to pick the right time to catch it. Also, be aware that available parking can be a bit of a struggle since it often fills up quickly.

The surf here works best with an east swell direction and can handle sizes around 2ft (about 0.6 meters). You can expect left-breaking waves over boulders, which tend to create a mix of different wave types. At lower and mid tides, the waves can become more hollow, demanding good skills to take off. High tide can be a bit slower, so if you're after more action, hitting it on low to mid tide is your best bet. Wind from the west is ideal, while too much north in the swell doesn’t really help the waves at this spot.

While it’s not the most consistent surf location, the right conditions can make it worthwhile. Keep an eye on the tide—it shifts the wave's behavior significantly—and make sure to enjoy the vibe of the local surf community. Just remember that when the waves are small, you might find more mellow rides rather than that sought-after wall. Overall, it's a spot where you can enjoy some decent sessions with the right swell and wind.
