Surfaris

Surf Spots
Oahu’s 20 miles stretch of North Shore is the home of surf and means huge waves and world class surf !
You have not made it as a world class surfer if you have not made it on the North Shore. Look in any international surf magazine and it will not take you too long to find a picture of a North Shore wave. It is a place truly blessed with top quality waves and swell. When the big winter swells come in, the world’s best surfers head here to surf 30 feet giants.
Each of the Hawaiian islands gets its share of the huge swells from October to March, but undoubtedly the North Shore is the place that receives the most attention. The location of its breaks makes surfing a fantastic spectator sport as well. Pipeline seems to breaks right off the beach and its almost like you are in the line up within getting your feet even wet ! Yet the south of the island is also a surfers dream with several classy breaks, much more accessible and less crowded.

THE LOCATION
Hawaii Archipelago
The world's longest island chain, Hawaii is an isolated archipelago in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, on the northern edge of the tropical zone between America and Japan. First settled by Polynesians, Hawaii was visited by British captain James Cook in 1778 who named them the Sandwich Islands. Hawaii archipelago is formed by 8 major islands and a series of smaller ones.
Ohau Island
Pearl Harbor, Honolulu, Waikiki and North Shore are names that, each for a different reason, put Oahu on the world map. Spectacular beaches, luxury resorts, tall mountains and lush countryside form the backdrop of this dream island. The third-largest island in Hawaii, Oahu is defined by two mountain ranges that divides the island into three environments: The lush windward (eastern) coast, the drier leeward (western) coast, and the fertile central Ewa Valley. Oahu is also the most populated island, where Honolulu is the capital city, principal port, major airport, business hub, financial centre and educational heart of the State of Hawaii, US' 50th state.
Climate
Tropical. Oahu has two seasons, both of them warm. The dry season that corresponds to summer, and the rainy season that runs from November to March. During these months, Oahu receives huge swells generated by deep low pressures inthe North Pacific that come crashing on the North Shore.
