  • Surfing, Gender and Politics: Identity and Society in the History of South African Surfing Culture in the Twentieth-Century
    Surfing, gender and politics: Identity and society in the history of South African surfing culture in the twentieth-century. by Glen Thompson Dissertation presented for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy (History) at Stellenbosch University Supervisor: Prof. Albert M. Grundlingh Co-supervisor: Prof. Sandra S. Swart Marc 2015 0 Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za Declaration By submitting this thesis electronically, I declare that the entirety of the work contained therein is my own, original work, that I am the author thereof (unless to the extent explicitly otherwise stated) and that I have not previously in its entirety or in part submitted it for obtaining any qualification. Date: 8 October 2014 Copyright © 2015 Stellenbosch University All rights reserved 1 Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za Abstract This study is a socio-cultural history of the sport of surfing from 1959 to the 2000s in South Africa. It critically engages with the “South African Surfing History Archive”, collected in the course of research, by focusing on two inter-related themes in contributing to a critical sports historiography in southern Africa. The first is how surfing in South Africa has come to be considered a white, male sport. The second is whether surfing is political. In addressing these topics the study considers the double whiteness of the Californian influences that shaped local surfing culture at “whites only” beaches during apartheid. The racialised nature of the sport can be found in the emergence of an amateur national surfing association in the mid-1960s and consolidated during the professionalisation of the sport in the mid-1970s.

  • Section Vii Public Access Policies #19-20 & Recreation
    SECTION VII PUBLIC ACCESS POLICIES #19-20 & RECREATION POLICIES #9, #21 & 22 Town of East Hampton LWRP Public Access and Recreation Policies #9 &19-22 A. INTRODUCTION Public access to the water and the recreation activity it affords is critical to East Hampton Town's resort economy. The tourist, second home and real estate industries stem directly from the attractions of coastal recreation, which takes place on public beaches and in public waters. Fishing, boating and the myriad of other activities are supported by an array of local enterprises, marina and charter boat operations, boat rentals, fishing tackle and sporting goods shops, which depend on the ecology, natural bounty and scenic beauty of public coastal resources. Maintaining water quality, fisheries productivity, beaches, wetlands, etc. are vital not only for the intrinsic value of the resources, but also for their ripple effect through the economy. The value of public access and coastal recreation goes beyond their economic worth -- it is the primary incentive for visiting and living in East Hampton. Coastal based recreation goes on in every reach of the Town's coastal zone, from passive, non- consumptive pastimes like photography and nature walks, to active, consumptive uses like fishing and hunting. The coast is not only a setting for active recreation, the harmony of nature and vistas of open space are themselves re-creation and relaxation for the mind, healing balm for the frenetic pace of life. The sea and its proximity, the inlets, bays, beaches and marshes attract the eye with unbroken expanses, infusing the spirit. While this LWRP section examines public access and recreational infrastructure, it is important to recall the visual and scenic context of these facilities and their tangible benefits to quality of life.

  • BEST BEACHES No One Ever Gets As Much Beach Time in Hawai‘I As They Planned To, It Seems, but It’S a Problem of Time, Not Beaches
    HAWAI’I’S BEST BEACHES No one ever gets as much beach time in Hawai‘i as they planned to, it seems, but it’s a problem of time, not beaches. Beaches of every size, color (even green), and description line the state’s many shorelines. They have different strengths: some are great for sitting but not so great for swimming; some offer beach-park amenities like lifeguards and showers, whereas others are more private and isolated. Read up before you head out. O‘ahu Makapu‘u Beach. Quite possibly O‘ahu’s most breathtaking scenic view—with a hiking trail to an historic lighthouse, offshore views of two rocky islets, home to thousands of nesting seabirds, and hang gliders launching off nearby cliffs. While the white-sand beach and surroundings adorn many postcards, the treacherous ocean’s currents invite experienced body boarders only. Kailua Beach Park. This is a true family beach, offering something for everyone: A long stretch of sand for walking, turquoise seas set against cobalt skies for impressive photographs, a sandy- bottom shoreline for ocean swimming, and grassy expanses underneath shade trees for picnics. You can even rent a kayak and make the short paddle to Popia (Flat) Island. This is Windward O‘ahu, so expect wind. All the better if you’re an avid windsurfer or kiteboarder. Waimea Bay. This is the beach that makes Hawai‘i famous every winter when monster waves and the world’s best surfers roll in. Show up to watch, not partake. If the rest of us want to get in the water here, we have to wait until summer when the safe, onshore break is great for novice bodysurfers.
