Ocean Boulevard / Route 1A

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Outstanding stretch along the coast — a popular destination, so you're best off early if the weather's good. Stop off along the route to hop in the water, or carry on further north to Portsmouth.

Parking area for Wallis Sands Beach

Highlight • Parking

You can't actually ride your bike onto Wallis Sands Beach. But you can lock it up here and walk out onto the beach, which is usually pleasant, quiet, and of course has great views over the water.

Tip by

11.8 km

From this roadside pull-off next to Wallis Sands State Beach, you get a beautiful unobstructed view of the Atlantic, with the Isles of Shoals hovering on the horizon like a mirage. The beach curves gently below you, framed by rocky outcrops and a grassy picnic area. It’s a quiet spot to watch the sunrise, close enough to hear the surf, and elevated just enough to take in the full coastal panorama.

Isles of Shoals Viewpoint

Highlight • Viewpoint

There's a great viewpoint here to look out over the ocean. On a clear day, you might be able to see all the way to the Isles of Shoals, about six miles off the coast.

Ocean view at rock sculpture point

Highlight • Viewpoint

Rye Harbor

Highlight • Structure

You wouldn't want to swim here (or in any harbor, really). But the docked boats — including those for fishing and lobstering, and charter craft for tourists — make some entertaining eye candy as you cycle past.

North Hampton State Beach

Highlight • Beach

Runners will find an ideal oceanfront run at North Hampton State Beach. Located directly on the Atlantic, its hard-packed sand makes for perfect jogging terrain alongside the water. North Hampton also features swimming beaches and picnic areas to enjoy before or after a picturesque seaside run. The bathhouse and nearby metered parking round out the convenient amenities catering to runners and beach goers alike.
