In 1614, Captain John Smith proclaimed the area now known as Rye, New
Hampshire as earthly paradise. Today, residents of this prosperous
residential community on the Atlantic Ocean diligently work to preserve
the natural beauty of the area. The rugged splendor of Rye's eight miles
of coastline naturally draws seasonal visitors eager to sun, swim and
explore the historic Isles of Shoals just offshore. However, Rye carefully
manages tourism to protect the quality of life for its citizens. Odiorne
Point State Park provides seaside nature trails, picnic areas and a marine
science center for all to enjoy. Rye is well-known for its elegant
oceanfront estates and quite impeccable neighborhoods.
