She leads group meetings, organizes beach cleanups and coordinates surf trips for the small-yet-growing group of 17 local women surfers. When Sanjaya learned how to surf about 8 years ago, she was the only woman in the lineup. Married women look after their husband and kids. People think only women tourists surf.

The rising sun is just beginning to paint the eastern skies in shades of vermilion, but there are already a number of surfers just beyond the breakers, scanning the lightening horizon for the perfect wave.

The inception of the club is thanks in part to the hard work of Tiffany Carothers.
