SUP! I love surfing. Ok, that may be a lie. I should say, I love surfing in WARM water. If you are like me, than Hawaii is the place to be. Pulling up to the beaches around the islands, you see trucks stacked high with boards, short, long and the mix.
After returning to Hawaii after 5 years, It is amazing to see the new popularity of the Stand Up Paddleboards or SUP’s. As the name implies, you stand on these boards and use a long paddle to navigate the waters. These boards are nice because they enable the paddler to catch small waves that wouldn’t be ridable on a regular surfboard. Hawaii is the birthplace of surfing and after perfecting this sport, they have invented another exemplifying their pull towards the ocean. Leave it up to the Hawaiians to enjoy the waves anyway they can.
Students on both of ARCC’s Hawaii trips will have a chance ride with Hawaiians and catch a few waves themselves on the beautiful beaches on Maui and Kauai!
