Cruisin', Surfin' Hawaii


A regular activity for tourists in Hawaii is a whale-watching cruise off Honolulu Bay. We took the one offered by the Star of Honolulu which promised to give a free return trip just in case no whales were spotted.


True, it wasn't easy to spot one. The yatch captain would normally holler directions as to where they were but the whales would already be gone when we check them. Below are the few shots I captured of the shy mammals.

Another thing that has always fascinated me is surfing in the giant waves of Hawaii. Not that I surf, but I have always been a fan of surfing movies. Good thing my host brought me to Northshore and other surfing hotspots. These are few of the shots I captured:
