As I’ve been researching and talking with people about Hawaii I’ve discovered something very interesting—a whole lot of Waimeas! Over this and the next posting I’ll talk about all the ones I’ve found. But this has to be the most intriguing!
Waimea River—On the island of Kauai. How do you feel about surfing a river? Surfers and boogie boarders dig out the sand where the river meets the shore. The powerful water creates a pipeline and away they go!Watch this youtube video for an impressive display. As the water gains power, the waves increase and the sport moves from boogie boarding to surfing.

Join me on Thursday for more of Hawaii's Waimea's.
Hang Ten, Brah!
Mahalo for visiting!

That looks like SO MUCH FUN! Anything to do with water and I'm THERE! I don't think I have the coordination to surf but I'd sure like to try. It looks like a blast! Thanks for such an entertaining post!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Karla! You could always Boogie Board! That way you don't have to stand up in full "surfing" position!
ReplyDeleteI'd love to see them do this for real.
