''THE MEN THAT WORK THE BEACH''
This is what going on with Willie Grace and his Film and Book called
'' The Men That Work The Beach'' Coming in 2007/2008 with the real deal
of what is going on with Waikiki and the BeachÂ
Â
A little about the ''FILM'' by Willie Grace
"THE MOVIE"
A documentary film is in the works chronicling the lives of the Hawaiian
Beach Boy, the group of native Hawaiians who have made their living
by teaching surfing, swimming, giving outrigger canoe rides and the
like at Hawaii's most popular beaches thoughout the 20th Century. We
want to tell the real stories going as far back as 1896 (and earlier)
to the present day of what this lifestyle entailed, and the important
mark that the Beach Boys have left on Hawaiian culture, surfing and
watersports. I am very interrested in interviewing Beach Boys as well
as thier Ohana (family) and friends. There are many misconceptions about
the Waikiki and Hawaiian Beach Boys and I want to set the story straight.
We need to document this almost bygone era for our keiki (kids) of Hawaii
so they can be proud and carry on the tradition in the old Hawaiian
way. I am looking for stories ( funny, happy, sad or others) We are
also looking for rare archival footage, photos, newpaper clipping and
other memorabilia as well. We plan to make this a project to HUI (to
unite or come together and assemble) the Hawaiian Beach Boys and share
the Aloha on a very large scale. We will also be doing a Beach Boys
party on the beach of Waikiki at one of the hotels on the oeacn front.
The world has so much to learn from our Hawaiian culture and lifestyle.
The Waikiki and Hawaiian Beach Boys have been the unofficial Ambassadors
of Aloha and it is now time to make it official. Your kokua (help) will
be appreciated in any form. This is a film about the PAST, PRESENT and
the FUTURE of the Waikiki and Hawaiian Beach Boys....
We are also looking for rare archival footage, photos, newpaper clipping
and other memorabilia as well. I am also looking for stories about the
beach boys. If you would like to help me out in anyway you can.

of the IKAIKA, '' FORCE'' which keep us Hawaiian and Waikiki Beach Boys

expressed in this collection of individuals bio's of the beach boys

and deepest respect for the feeling of ''ALOHA'' love for the beach.

Let me formally introduce myself. My name is Willie Grace. I'm a native
Hawaiian, born and raised in Hawaii. I have been surfing for over 30
years and am a former Hawaii and California State Surfing Champion.
All of the surf spots in the Hawaiian Islands have been my play grounds
for decades. You are in good hands with a "local Hawaiian Beach
Boy" who knows these waters well. I know the breaks, channels,
tides, reefs and overall critical information needed to ensure your
safety. Teaching surfing is personally satisfying for me. I teach because
I feel it is important to perpetuate Hawaiian Surfing by sharing this
great sport with others. Not to mention, it's great to see that look
on someones face the first time they ride their first wave!
There are no refunds for bad or no surf, rain,
winds, no shows, or you getting to the beach late. ** Please note there
are no guarantees that the Surf will be good as everything depends on
"Mother Nature"! But...If the Surf is on will have a good
time SURFING...Certain exceptions may be made based on Surf Instructors
availablility, dates and times.
Stop dreaming of being in beautiful Waikiki in Hawaii, lying on the
beach, watching the waves. Experience surfing and meeting new people!
Imagine you and your new friends cruising on the beach, checking out
the surf... It's getting glassy and hot, and all you can do is look
at each other with that glint in your eyes that tell you..."Yeah,
it's time to paddle out BRADDA!!!"
Instructors Do Matter!!! "GO SURFING"
With a Hawaiian Beach Boy.
Therefore we have Hawaii's top professional longboarders, shortboarders,
watermen, and lifeguards. Photos and articles of the staff can be found
in many surfing magazines. We have surfed all over the world in all

Grace and the Staff are all Waikiki and Hawaiian Beach Boys who have
been on the beach for years.
