- Only 5 1/2 miles from
Rye, are the Isles of Shoals. This starkly remote group of nine islands is a natural
habitat for many species of marine life. History at the Shoals has been diverse.
A large fishing community thrived during the colonial days. By the mid 1800's, island
hotels entertained many famous guests. Legends tell of pirates, buried treasure,
ghosts, murders, and more. Today the islands are home to a large conference center,
a college marine lab and one of the oldest lighthouses in the country.
