Day 9 - Ho'okipa - Windsurfing Capital of the World

On the way down back from the Upcountry, we decided to go to Ho'okipa Beach Park. Ho'okipa is known for "the spot" to go windsurfing and traditional surfing. Seeing it was July 4th, the place was busier than usual. To us though it seemed relatively empty. To the west of the beach was a coral/lava cropping that was literally brimming with sea turtles. You could look at the water and see their shadows slowly rise from within the water for a quick breath and then dive again. Others laid on the coral resting. It was pretty amazing watching all the surfers. We managed to hang around there for quite a while.
