Kia Ora!
My name is Cesar and I love to surf.
I created this lens to showcase New Zealand waves for those of you who are contemplating a journey down to...
(more...)
Aotearoa
New Zealand is located at the bottom of our Earth, in the south-western Pacific Ocean, and it takes a long time to travel from far off lands like States side or Europe to Aotearoa, the 'land of the long white cloud'.
As most surfers want to know if their destination of choice has potential for scoring great waves, this lens is an album of digital photographs of New Zealand surfing. I hope my images allow you to see what you may experience during your surfing exploration (and adventure) here in New Zealand.
Although small in size, comprising two islands (the North Island and the South Island) and numerous smaller islands, New Zealand has a lot of different types of waves to offer for those seeking both big waves and small ankle snappers- from world-class point breaks to first-class beach breaks and everything in between.
Enjoy,
Cesar
PS. Additionally, I have included some links for further surfing along with other surfing related goodies.
P.P.S. Aotearoa is the Maori name for New Zealand. The word can be broken up as: ao = cloud, tea = white, and roa = long, and it is accordingly most often glossed as 'The land of the long white cloud'. The use of Aotearoa to refer to the whole of New Zealand is a post-colonial usage. (1)
P.P.P.S. Please don't forget to rate this lens! Thanks :)
