Affectionately known as “The Country,” the bohemian outpost, located 30 miles north of Honolulu on Oahu Island, boasts a stretch of coast that plays home to some of the greatest waves on the planet, including the infamous Waimea Bay where in the winter they can climb to over 20 feet. “During the summer months local surfer kids hurl themselves off the rocks on the left hand side of the bay, attempting to recreate the sensation of that big winter drop,” says Coburn, a regular visitor to Oahu with his surfboard and camera. The film is an ode to the luxury of “Hawaiian time,” he explains. “No-one and nothing runs to a schedule on the North Shore. It’s a perfect summer idyll free of crowds and pretentious bikini beach strips.” Spotlighted by hit TV series Lost, the North Shore’s pristine beaches and world-class surf breaks feature an increasing number of luxurious vacation homes. While celebrities including Owen Wilson frequent the shore’s only plush resort hotel, Turtle Bay, the real Sunset Beach stars are surfers like John John Florence, the 18-year-old breakout talent from Hale’iwa, who has been touted by World Champion surfer Kelly Slater has as the next big thing. Here’s our list of the North Shore’s must-see spots.

Stu’s introduction to photography was one of accident, quite literally. A car smash saw him hobbling on crutches and plastered up to a dangerously itchy level, but this forced shore leave proved to be a blessing in disguise as soon as he picked up the camera.

Shooting from the beach on a pre-loved Canon film rig, Stu realised that he had stumbled onto a good thing, judging not only by the powerful images that he was capturing, but also by his outspoken, eager mates that were mildly excited to see some shots of themselves. It was then that Stu realised he had found his passion and his true life calling.
