hey
im a surfer from Ireland. Just got started recently and im going to be in the following places, starting on the 27th in honolulu:

Honolulu, Hawaii
Kauai (Nawiliiwili), Hawaii
Maui (Lahaina), Hawaii
Hilo, Hawaii
Kona, Hawaii

Its one day per place coz im on a cruise ship.
I would really appreciate if anyone could tell me a good place to go surfing in all of these places.

I have no board with me, so the place needs to have a cheap rental place, but the boards dont have to be amazing-i probably wouldnt do them justice.

As im a beginner, no surf spots that are too hard-i was in Donegal recently and had my butt kicked by a wave so im just easing back into things.

Also-im used to wearing a wet suit. I guess i dont need one in hawaii, but do i need any other specific gear?

If someone with really good info wants to link up for a chat on MSN messenger that'd be great-just leave ure email in your reply

PLEASE REPLY SOON-IM LEAVIN ON SATURDAY!!!

www.wannasurf.com for main spots will give you an idea and also shows skill ratings.

Board rental - Google it! + there will be plenty to find there all over the place.

If you've got a rash vest and boardies then thats all you'll need to have on in the water. oh and plenty of think sunblock esp on the backs of your legs.
