Surfing and Hawaii are synonymous, particularly on Oahu where the island’s geography seems specifically carved for creating amazing waves. Oahu’s position in the island chain sets it up to receive waves that have built up over a fetch of a thousand miles or more.
One of the best moments of surfing, for both surfers and spectators, is the moment of consideration–slow, sure reflection on the gravity of getting headfirst into the ocean to ride waves, joining a fraternity that began with ancient Hawaiians.
The scenery isn’t too bad either.
