Big Waves!

Big waves along the north coast of Maui from the Ho’okipa Lookout near Paia, Hawaii

We’re home again and doing all of our usual “just got home stuff.” I’ll be working on photos over the coming weeks but have a small collection that I worked on but hadn’t posted yet.

This series is from time we spent at Ho’okipa Lookout near Paia, Hawaii. The waves there are often huge, and as large as they were on the day we visited, there are times when we can’t stand where we were standing. As it was, our sunglasses and my camera were covered in fine salt spray by the time we got back to the car.

I don’t know for sure, but would estimate some of the waves at 20-30 feet high! And if you look closely on some of the photos you will see windsurfers and parasailers on the water.

    1. Nah, she stuck pretty close to me. Although she insisted I give her the car keys in case I accidentally joined the surfers. 🙂
