Aloha mai kākou,
The surf is starting to pick up during the fall season in Hawai`i.... Surf, or nalu, is today's word of the day! Nalu (naw loo) is a wave, the surf, to form waves, or full of waves. Famous surf spots, such as the north shore or Waimea bay (why may yah…. Meaning ‘Red water’), are very active during this season, producing huge surf (some at 50 feet or more), attracting brave surfers from all over. The Quiksilver surf tournament, in memory of a beloved surfer named Eddie Aikau, has been held there several times. The only way the tourney can be held is if waves are at least 20 feet or more. That’s like 2 stories of a powerful, crushing wall of water! Even the most experienced surfers can get hurt. So, please heed the warnings posted. I included a photo of waves, but your more than welcome to view the following link to read about the surf report there….

A hui hou,
Haunani
