I am planning a trip to hawaii.
heard maui (hookipa) should be great for windsurfing.
does anyone knows about the cheapest accomodation, car rental, dayly costs (food&fun), flight from australia (brisbane)...
Is it accepted to sleep in a van, can i buy a van as a tourist, camping?
Is july/august the right time to go there?
Do you know any place (private) to stay in exchange for some work (electrician)
All helpful information much appreciated

take me with you

Junior, you need to get a special permit to windsurf at lancelin. I think they have all been issued? Plus there are alot of sharks out there. Also freestyle is good at Pelican Point on the Swan River. Similar conditions to what your use to at the train

Hey justin and jessy,
i havent seen you since i had the idea to go to maui. i am more than happy if you come with me (us) Dan comes also. gets cheaper to rent car house... in a group, and its more fun. i m just checking the flight prices and dates.
Who else is interested to join a few weeks of good fun in paradise?

We're ok Leper. Because we live in queensland, we are all given special Peter Beattie passes that over ride all other permits. With one of these passes one can build a cruise ship terminal where ever one likes, and build a freeway through a national park full of endangered frogs. Looking forward to seeing you there

Would I joke about a thing like that? Simon and Haydz wouldn't lie about permits. I'm not kidding about the sharks either. That's more than an issue than the rangers. Lots of little reefies. The cray fishermen work this area. South passage and hole in the wall is their channel. sharks follow the boats in. I got a life time permit because my Dad's Uncle is a local cray fisherman and they own a clothing shop in Lancelin. We also have a family shack up at Wedge. Sorry dude. I think your best bet is to go to Hawaii on a budget. Remember it's not like the train

What does that mean if ur "not from perth"??? What about the kiters? How much is the plane ticket to hawaii? For now im going to mauritius , will let you know how the waves are hehehe !!!
