Say aloha to Cayla Moore, our resident ray of Hawaiian sunshine: "I was a water baby. My dad said that I could swim before I could walk. My whole family loves the ocean. Almost every afternoon you can find my dad, sister and I at our home spot Kewalos on Oahu's south shore enjoying the playful lefts and rights. Surfing is a big part of my life because it's a way that I spend time with the ones I love. My friends and I like to surf at Kewalos, watch Gossip Girl and Vampire Diaries, go hiking, and just have fun!" Keep reading to catch up on Cayla’s summer so far and be sure to come back to the blog for updates on life in O’ahu and on the road with her sister. Every summer has a story, what's yours?

My dad was a competitive ocean water swimmer, my mom used to swim and coach and my sister isn't too bad at surfing ;) 

I did a rough water swim on the northshore with my sister, her boyfriend and his sister!! I got 13th and Carissa got 9th in the 15-19 year-old division. We raced from Sunset to Pipeline which is basically a mile. It was a really beautiful day and a wonderful way to get active!

Yesterday i went hiking with my best friend Jessica to Manoa Falls right by my house. It was so pretty!!
