    Each time I surf this spot I tell myself that it must be one of the most beautiful places in the world. Nice to hear that someone who lives in Hawaii feels the same...

      @@itskoasmith casually mentioning that every creature wants to kill you is simply... ignorance. I'm only familiar with one creature that match this definition and that is... a human.

    I recommend taking a visit to a town called kometje because it has arguably the best big wave spot in South Africa,krons which has perfect barrels, long beach which is basically lowere trestles from wish and it has inner Kom which is a perfect left and works at high tide but it only works in south winds (it doesn’t matter which way south) and east winds

    There's a guy on youtube that has a bunch of drone videos going up and down the Southern California coast and there's great white sharks everywhere. And they're always getting close to people that don't see them. The ocean is a trip because right when you step into the water, you're stepping into an open frontier.
