First Swell

Chuns


The first BIG swell of the year has hit the north shore. It actually started on Sunday, but we couldn't even get through Haleiwa to see it. There were so many people out here. Monday was also a holiday so there were a lot of people taking advantage of the extra day off.

I got up early yesterday and went up to Sunset and got some pics. I knew it was big because we could hear it from our house all night. No swimming for me at the usual spots for a bit.

Yesterday afternoon, it started to get stormy and the winds changed, so the swell is dropping, and it's not as clean because of the funny winds.
Waimea Bay 8-10 feet
looking back towards Waialua...the mist in the air because of the big surf
Remember, even if it doesn't look clear, the water is still warm, the air is still warm. Enjoy!
