Late Summer North Swell on Maui

An out of season but very appreciated northeast swell hit the north shores of Maui today.  Many, many surfers and windsurfers were STOKED!  Mark was out at dawn and back in for sessions all day long.

Another beautiful downwind paddle

Here are some photos from another gorgeous day on Maui.  Perfect conditions for a few gals to have a nice paddle.
