North Shore SWELLS at 25 FEET!!!! DAMMMMMM! - Beyond Tiki

On the mainland a swell may last 1 to 2.5 days; on the North Shore, a big swell may only last 3 or 4 hours and it's gone. With that said, the North Shore is a true paradise of large surf. It's the kind of place that when you're paddling out, you see monster waves coming, you paddle like a mutha fu$& to get under the lip, only to see even bigga waves farther out coming your way. But when you finally get out to the line up, it's heaven...
