Following our series of what we love about the North Shore of Oahu….Turtles, turtles, turtles everywhere! When taking a surfing lesson or Stand Up Paddle Board on the North Shore of Oahu you will be sure to see turtles basking in the sun, swimming in the surf or cruising down the Anahulu Stream all the while popping there adorable turtle heads up to say hi. It’s hard to not stop teaching a surfing lesson if just for a moment to say hi back to our precious green friends. I call it TADD…Turtle Attention Deficit Disorder and have named all the turtles on the North Shore Nemo. Why did I name them all Nemo? Because I can!

Six-year old North Shore Surfer Girl SUP Lesson

By |February 10th, 2010|Six-year old North Shore Surfer Girl SUP Lesson, Surf Happenings|0 Comments

Teaching young children to surf is one of the North Shore Surf Girls favorite things to do.   Recently, we  took Ms. Kekai on her first trip on a surf lesson board up the Anahulu River on the North Shore of Oahu for a SUP lesson. Way cute! The picture below says it all!

More important then being cute is the self esteem children develop when learning to surf or paddle at such a young age.  It’s a gift that will stay with them for the rest of their lives.
