"Lighthouse"

Threes, Pops, Rock Piles, Devils Rock, Bowls, Castles - the names of various surf spots around the island - the picture above is from a break called lighthouse because the surf break is outside of an actual lighthouse. While biking home, I stopped by the lookout and took this photo at approx. 5:30 PM.

If you have an image/post of a surf break, I'd like to provide a link to your image!

    Nice picture. Makes me think back to France of all things. Quite unexpectedly we encountered surfers on a long curved beach in Brittany, France.

    Hey Diehardx- you have a great blog on the world cup too! :)

    Hi Nerissa, thanks - France has some really good surf - theres a surf meet over there somewhere quite popular with the locals here.

    Now that looks like fun, but I guess only for the skilled ones.

    Hi Nicola, Diamond Head breaks are a little more challenging at times in my humble opinion since it gets windy in that area.

    And Thanks to Kate for sharing her Link

    Adding links for surf break photos post by others is a good idea.

    Hi Louz - actually, I have not seen Riding Giants, but I believe that was filmed on Pa'ia Mau'i at the surf spot called Jaws with Tow-in surfing. Laird Hamilton just did a Eurpean trek - surfboard paddling from England to France or something and biking into Paris for a documentary to raise money for Autistic kids.

    Wish I could be biking home past the beach! Nice shot. The weather at the beaches here have been foggy lately. We have a few hot surf spots that I need to get around to.

    Hey Nicolas,
    long time no commenting, I'm sorry!
    Ah, I just love your pictures, they're always so great and picturesque...
    I wish I could surf, it looks like a real fun sport, but we don't even have a lake nearby... =(
