Summer Surf Shacks

It's not too soon to start thinking about summer and waves.  I'm very excited as I've booked hubby and I for a week at Tofino to stay at this cute cottage, Tofino Surf Shack, right on Chesterman beach.  I'm looking forward to lazy summer days riding the waves, cooking up a big ol pot of crab and fresh salmon on the barby, and doing some butt-kicking cycling.

Some of my other fave surf destinations and shacks below.  The common thread? Great waves, fresh seafood on a bbq, some bzzr and endless ocean view.

Ahu Ahu Beach Villas, Oakura, New Zealand - a modern concrete bunker with floor to ceiling, double french glass doors opening out to the Tasman Sea.  What's not to love?  It's also where I first learned to surf.


And my fave surf location in the world - Hanalei Bay in Kauai.  Here's my secret cottage getaway...
