In this video we take a winter surfing trip. To get to the beach you have to hike down a short trail through the rainforest. The water this time of year is usually around 8 degrees so most people wear thick wetsuits, but my brother decided to take a cold dip for a couple waves. We finish the day back on the sailboat with some chai tea and chocolate chip cookies.
Thank you very much for watching, we hope you enjoed!
