Winter time has come here in Maui which means humpback whales arriving on the south shores and big surf on the north shore. This morning Ben and I paddled out early to a calm, beautiful day of overhead surf at Ho'okipa Beach Park. The waves were consistent, the crowd was friendly, and everyone was enjoying a rare non-windy day except some cranky windsurfers. After getting scraped around on the reef after falling off a big lumpy takeoff I decided to lick my wounds and grab my camera to try and get a bit of the feel of the day. Lots of bystanders watched the surfers from high atop the overlook. Many locals just enjoyed the beautiful beach conditions. And one father even found a calm corner to teach his daughter how to surf. As you may have guess there was a lot of aloha in the air.
