- stayed over at the "Point at Poipu". shipwrecks was just a short walk. probably the staple break of my trip because it was working every day. definitely was able to rack up some barrel time. not the longest ride or anything but definitely a fun little wave. local scene was a bit imposing at first but give them some space and they're fine. even against us haoles heh.
