Xa abaninzi abantu becinga ngokungena kwi-US, indawo ezifana neCalifornia, iHawaii, kunye neFlorida iyafika engqondweni. Kodwa kukho enye indawo engalindelekanga enikezela ngamagagasi anamangalisayo. Iyaziwa ngokuzibandakanya njenge "I-Coast yeThathu" kwaye ifumaneka kwindawo yaseMelika.
AmaLwandle aMandla angenako ukubonelela ngamava afanayo njengamanye amazwe athandwayo, kodwa abaqhubi abanomdla baya kufumana amagagasi angama-20 + kunye nokuntuleka okupheleleyo kwezihlwele. Baya kufumana ncinane kakhulu indlela yokuphila kolwandle (funda: akukho nobheksi!) Kunye namanqabunga awananto kakhulu. Ngamafutshane, ukugqithwa kwezi ziko zamanzi akufani nantoni na ejikeleze kwaye kuvuyisa kakhulu.
Xa ufaka amaLwandle amakhulu, kubalulekile ukuba ugqoke ngokufanelekileyo (oko kuthetha ukuba i-wetsuit okanye i-driedsuit), unobhodi olufanelekileyo (olukhudlwana lokushushumbisa amanzi), kwaye ulungele izimo ezingalindelekanga. Amanzi anokuba nzima kwaye imimoya ephezulu yongeza umngeni wokuhlala ebhodini lakho.
Ngaloo nto engqondweni, nantsi iinqunto zethu kwiindawo ezifanelekileyo zokufakela phezu kwezi zidumbu zamanzi ezimangalisayo.
