"Big" Waves at Emon Beach, Kwajalein Atoll

A developing tropical disturbance in the central Marshall Islands generated rough seas (by Kwaj standards) and impressive waves along the lagoon side Kwajalein Atoll's east reef. The school kids had a blast body surfing (as did I), which was a perfect way to usher in a three-day weekend. For more material from Kwajalein, visit...
