Know Before You Go
Wakesurfing is very similar to actual surfing; once you catch a wave from the boat’s wake, you let go of the towrope and surf’s up!
The sport is one of the easiest water activities available at Melvin Village Marina. Still, we put safety first which is why prior to taking off, our expert boat crew will give you a breakdown of safety signals, communication reminders, and other rules and guidelines to guarantee a safe, fun day of wakesurfing on Lake Winnipesaukee.
Frequently Asked Questions About Wakesurfing in NH
Are there any age restrictions for wakesurfing in New Hampshire?
All watersport participants must be over the age of 18. Those 17 years old and younger may participate with a signed waiver from a legal parent or guardian.
What should I bring with me to Lake Winnipesaukee for wakesurfing?
Come prepared for a day on the water with a bathing suit, towel, and sunscreen.
You’re more than welcome to pack snacks and a small cooler with beverages. Please note that additional cleaning fees may apply for excessive crumbs or stains.

Can we do multiple watersports during a session?
Yes, you can choose as many as you’d like. All we ask is that you select your sports at the time of booking so that we can have the boat prepared and ready to go with the proper equipment when you arrive.

We will only cancel if there is severe weather in the area such as thunder and lightning.
