In
many respects, surfing has not changed in a thousand
years. The first Westerner to see and document surfing
was Captain James Cook during his voyage to Hawaii in
1778. Nearly two centuries later, surfing belonged to
Gidget and Hollywood, but a lot happened along the way.
From Duke Kahanamoku to the surf music phenomenon, this
museum in Oceanside, California captures the history
and unique spirit of surfing.
