Surf Dutch Harbor

February 9th, 2010

On rare occasions, a surfable wave appears at the spit in Dutch Harbor, Alaska.  These pics were taken on Jan 18, 2010 actually during twilight hours.  But you’ve got to wear a seagull destruction helmet to survive the “beakings“.  The wave breaks at the base of the Icicle Seafoods fish guts and bits discharge pipe so watch out for 10,000 hungry birds, 300 pound halibut and boat sized sleeper sharks nipping at your toes.
