Top photo: Legendary big wave surfers Laird Hamilton and Dave Kalama led surfers in a paddle out ceremony to form a peace sign off the beach at Paradise Cove. The visual of the floating peace sign is a compelling example of unity for an important cause: raise awareness about the threats to the ocean’s health. The Natural Resources Defense Council and Paradise Cove Cafe partnered to provide this event.
