The North Shore Hawaii Seascape Art
Life Is Not Measured By the Number of Breaths We Take, But By the Moments That Take Our
Breath Away!
I had just moved to Hawaii and the North Shore was drawing me to itself with its majestic rocks, unmistakeable sand and legendary surfing history. Surfers wait patiently for the waves to die down enough so they can hurriedly venture beyond the breaking point for their powerful curls. The blue sky and white clouds are a contrast to the beautiful blue water and aqua/white waves. I have never seen such beautiful aqua water before in all of my life.
The North Shore, in the context of geography of the Island of Oʻahu, refers to the north-facing coastal area of Oʻahu between Kaʻena Point and Kahuku Point. The largest settlement is Haleʻiwa. The northern hemisphere winter months on the North Shore see a concentration of surfing activity, taking advantage of swells originating in the stormy North Pacific. Notable surfing spots include Waimea Bay and Sunset Beach.
The spot of Ehukai Beach, commonly known as the Banzai Pipeline, is the most notable surfing spot on the North Shore, and is considered a prime spot for competitions due to its close proximity to the beach, giving spectators, judges, and photographers a great view.
The North Shore is considered to be the surfing mecca of the world, and every December hosts three competitions, which make up the Triple Crown of Surfing. The three men's competitions are the Reef Hawaiian Pro, the O'Neill World Cup of Surfing, and the Billabong Pipeline Masters. The three women's competitions are the Reef Hawaiian Pro, the Roxy Pro Sunset, and the Billabong Pro on the neighboring island of Maui.
