The Wall surfspot characteristics

More about The Wall surfspot

General: When it comes to New Hampshire surf spots, The Wall is where everyone surfs when the points aren't breaking, which is most of the time. It's the only rideable spot when the surf is under three-feet, and it's always bigger than everywhere else around. However, at The Wall, bigger isn't always better. Often, it is just one solid, closed-out wall. On smaller days, this 2.5-mile stretch of sand is the best-shaped wave around. When the wind's cranking offshore, The Wall can offer sand-sucking barrels. Be mindful during high tides on smaller days as it will break close to the beach. Tides: Incoming; all tides when over 4 feet Size: Chest-head high Wind: W to NW Swell: E, ESE, SE Bottom: Sand Paddling: Pretty mellow in the summer but much worse in the winter when cold water and air necessitate full winter gear. Spot Rating: Fun at the right size and a good spot for beginners when it is small.
