Summer Sessions - 2 person, one day, surfboard and wet suit rental 

Summer Sessions

the ideal surf destination

Rye offers a nice alternative to the busy and touristy Hampton Beach. Located less than three miles north of Hampton Beach along Rt. 1A (Ocean BLVD), Rye is a scenic and historic stretch of coastline that is quintessentially "New England." Less crowded beaches and lineups make Rye the ideal New Hampshire surf getaway!

Because Rye boasts the best point breaks in New Hampshire as well as intermediate and advanced beach breaks, long boarders and beginners can find fun long lines while short boarders can discover punchy beach breaks with enough power to air-out. Learn more about the local surf spots.

accommodations and food

Rye is home to many quaint cottages and cabins available for summer rentals as well as hotels and campgrounds, which provide affordable options. Whether you are looking for great seafood, fine dining, or a quick bite, Rye's coastline offers it all.

Summer Sessions Surf Shop is the perfect place to "Surf and Stay!" The Surf Shop shares its location with a coffee shop and country store, so you can come in for anything from bagels and smoothies to chips and beer. We also share the property withThe Dunes Motor Inn, an idyllic little motel and restaurant that is a throw back to the 60's drive-inn era. So, you can rent a board, fill your belly, and walk to the beach from the surf shop parking lot, then crash at the neighboring motel after a day in the sun! How could a surf vacation be any easier?

other activities

If the swell happens to be small or surfing just isn't your thing, there are plenty of other activities offered through the shop. Fishing, Booze Cruises, Scuba Diving & Snorkeling tours, Bike and Kayak rentals, Horseback Riding, Skimboard lessons and Beach Yoga can all be scheduled through the store or our partners. There is plenty to keep you busy and active while you're here.

nightlife

You wanna to party, huh? There is plenty of that in Rye and Portsmouth, but you better still be up for the dawn surf session regardless! Portsmouth is one of New England's most happening scenes. The downtown area has pubs, sports bars, and clubs that cater to all types whether they are fine diners or night revelers. Smaller, cleaner and more cultural than Hampton Beach, it offers a nice contrast to the "Hampton Scene."
