Honeymoon Island(s)!!!!

It’s about to split! We don’t have much sand left in this little gap. What’s it going to take to open this pass? Are we just a few spring high tides away or will a tropical storm do the trick? Send in a few pictures if you’re there after it happens. We’re just weeks or maybe months away from the official split of the walking beach Honeymoon Island ranked among the best beaches in the country.

End of January Swell 2020 by Kylie Lettieri


Kylie Lettieri is the photographer of these pictures. Kylie is an avid surfer whose favorite gulf coast spot is Honeymoon Island. She rides a softtop funshape when she’s not riding one of her high performance shortboards. She’s been shredding the gnar for many years now. She has truely become a Honeymoon Island local shredder.


Going through Kylie’s gallery wasn’t easy. She took 1563 pictures of surfing today. After going through all the pictures and choosing the best ones I ended up with the 75 pictures below. There were so many because the camera shutter was shooting at a high speed, meaning, she was taking lots of pictures in a sequence of the same waves. So I took out the best ones of the sequences. You’ll notice that we were party waving it today, everyone catching the same waves because there was a wait between sets. The waves really were suitable for multiple riders. You can also see how offshore the winds were. It was glassy today. Aren’t those truely the best days? Also, check out Lias walking the nose of her longboard in the second to last sequence. This was an awesome day, and these pictures turned out great! Kylie did great keeping the horizon level. Amazing pictures Kylie!
