Dia Cuatro

Dave and I are up at the crack of dawn for a surf session. Its raining and windy but we dag ourselves down to the bay to find a sweet little right hand wave breaking in front of a row of Moai statues, but rather shallowly over sharp volcanic rock. The only boards availabe are 2 duck tapped short boards or two beginner boards with no leashes. We take the beginners and padle out alone. The waves turn out not to be too powerful but I have one amazing ride and possibly the funniest surf laughing at each other trying to ride proper waves on boards made for white water.
We have a moment of cheesyness when we realise we are probably the most remote surfers in the World at this time, and we are surfing such a cool break.

The afternoon is tough work climbing to the crater of the biggest volcano on the island. To anyone coming here, this is what Easter Island should be famous for, and the statues second. It`s jaw dropping, I can`t think of a natural sight to beat it - Yet :)
This photo does nothing for the crater, you`ll have to trust us.
