Hello everyone, I hope you had a great weekend just like the one we just had. It’s been hot but cloudy and with a nice offshore breeze, and the waves have been super fun.

You’ve probably seen on this page the banner of Las Plumerias Hotel, right? Well, let me introduce you to one of the owners Etienne (you’ve probably seen him surfing too), super nice guy, look for him in the water, he might give you a big smile.

And this is Emeline, the other owner of Las Plumerias (Etienne’s wife)… give her a big smile too when you see her.

Another guy that probably had a big smile was this kid after coming out of what looks like a barrel (at least from his point of view!)

The waves were not barreling but there was plenty of wall on each one to carve around.
