The Banzai Pipeline, or simply "Pipeline" or "Pipe," is a surf reef break located in Hawaii, off Ehukai Beach Park in Pupukea on O'ahu's North Shore. A reef break is an area in the ocean where waves start to break once they reach the shallows of a reef. Pipeline is notorious for huge waves which break in shallow water just above a sharp and cavernous reef, forming large, hollow, thick curls of water that surfers can tube ride. There are three reefs at Pipeline in progressively deeper water further out to sea that activate according to the increasing size of approaching ocean swells.

The wave at Lobitos isn't at all like the North Shore's Pipeline, but there are lots of pipelines about. Oil is still big business there.
We went to the Artic Circle on a tour, which was quite a journey. One of the things the tour highlighted was that we would be able to get out and see the pipeline. Well, I thought, "How ridiculous!" and was making fun of it. That is, until I actually saw the pipeline. It is so impressive. The magnitude is unbelievable and we were able to actually stand under it in some places and you could feel the power rushing through the pipes. I was sorry that I had made fun of this because it was one of my favrorite highlights of this trip.
