definitely a 1 or 2 star most of the time - Surfinng here is pretty crappy most of the year. If you think you're gonna get it like it is in the picture (if the picture WAS taken there),you're gonna be disapointed big time.

The Picture - I'm not trying to put down Hyuga's waves -I surf there all the time- but I find it hard to believe the authenticity of that picture. I've never seen the water that color before and from that angle you should be able to see the distant point.
