Spot Details

The Inlet is the gem of the North Shore.  This a very small beach on the inland side of the Hampton Beach Bridge.  This is advanced intermediate to advanced rider area and the area is very gusty and has fast current from the tides. In addition to high current and gusty conditions rider must watch for the many obstacles, moored fishing boats and jagged steel piers.   When the wind is Northwest ,West or WSW with high tided the area is huge however in low tide its very tight.  Close attention should be given to the direction of the tide as your ability to stay upwind can be greatly impacted by the current . The locals are friendly and receptive to respectful outsiders that respect their beach and ask the rules before venturing out ..  The North Shore crew have limited spots in the area and the inlet is the main location for NW, W, WSW wind direction.  Best time of year is spring and fall .  Summer is light wind time in the area and most days are sub 10 mph with the occasional frontal wind from the South East or North East .

Other safety Items, the grass or brush on the flats near the setup area is razor sharp and can shred your kite if you crash you kite down on this stuff .  There is also a lot of broken glass near the road so always where booties here , even when riding as the clam beds can rip your feet up quickly.  The road is the parking area if you can find a spot . Spring and fall you can usually find a spot along the road.  Access in the Summer is tough and beach traffic is crazy here, it once took me two hours to go a couple miles and when I got to the spot there was no parking so I turned around and went home.

Closest wind readings , Hampton beach and plumb island sensors , both read low or show inconsistent readings on NW or NNW because they are in a wind shadow.  These sensors work well on NE through SE .
