Welcome to Chapter 4 of Shayne’s Sanuks- a growing collection of photos taken by Sanuk surf shredder/traveler/full-time family man, Shayne McIntyre.

This time, you’ll get a glimpse of life in the Caribbean. The following photographs and words are from the man himself…

One thing that I love about living in the Caribbean is that all the islands are relatively close – an hour flight here, and hour there…One island chain that keeps drawing me back is the BVI’s (British Virgin Islands). Comprised primarily of Tortola, Virgin Gorda, Jost Van Dyke, and a plethora of islets surrounding those, this place is a Corona ad at every turn.

The water is too clear, the island too laid-back, and what you’ve been sold about the Caribbean over the years comes to life before your very eyes.  Here’s a few pics from my last visit:

AirPropellor: I’m loving my new iPhone and it has a cool shutter speed that makes your airplane propellor look like it’s falling off.  I took 50 of these pics and every time I turned my phone another angle it would look completely different.  Great way to keep busy on a 30 minute flight from Puerto Rico to the BVIs.

BombaShack: This is the sign in front of the “Bomba Shack,”- infamous for wild parties that’d even E! wouldn’t dare film.  But it’s empty in the daytime, which is the only time I’d walk in!

Apple Bay: This is a beautiful wave on it’s day and shown here about 1ft. right in front of the Bomba Shack.  I’ve had some clean way overhead barrels out here – perfectly offshore.

.
Island Pic: So close yet so far away – another island in the BVIs.

My Sanuks: This is another reason I moved to the Caribbean – I love the colors.

That concludes Chapter 4.  Missed the first few chapters? Get caught up!
