Body Surfing on the North Shore

Day One: Kuilima Cove


An untypically rough surf day at Kuilima

Not a ton to report today as we've been adjusting and resting. Originally we had planned to drive around the island and get a feel for it this first day, but after the long travel day yesterday, the kids wanted to hit the water. Kuilima Cove, right by Turtle Bay Resort, is known as one of the best snorkeling beaches on Oahu for beginners. However, the surf was so rough with 8-12 foot waves coming from the north just outside the cove, that the kids jumped on their boogie boards for some wave riding. They also did some filming with our go pros, including underwater.

In food news, we stopped in at Seven Brothers Burgers in Laie. A surfing inspired burger joint tucked into a strip mall, the "Master Chefs" here serve up some amazing burgers.

Fun to see the Bruce Irons burger there, a nod to this years Pipe Masters competition in memory of his brother, surfer Andy Irons.
