Linkys is a raw and rewarding beach break tucked along New Hampshire's compact but spirited coastline, picking up northeast swells that funnel into the area with surprising power during fall and winter storm systems. The spot faces WNW into a sheltered orientation that rewards surfers when the right combination of east to northeast groundswell and offshore winds align, producing punchy, hollow peaks that can surprise even seasoned surfers. New Hampshire's surf scene is tight-knit and dedicated, and Linkys reflects that spirit — a local gem that rewards those willing to brave cold North Atlantic water temperatures.
Wave heights shown are breaking wave heights — the actual rideable wave size at this spot.

The current breaking wave height at Linkys is 2ft, produced by a 1.4ft SE primary swell at 7s, a 1.2ft WNW wind swell swell at 3s. Breaking wave height is the actual rideable wave size at the shore — calculated from offshore swell data using this spot's coastal bathymetry — not the raw buoy reading.
