A visual story and celebration of ocean community, passion, and the New York surfer soul
New York surfing is mad. Breaks are hard to access, waves are inconsistent, winter (which produces the best waves) is brutal. You might risk almost anything just so you don’t hear those famous words, “You should have been here an hour ago.”
Follow dedicated wave hunters to the end of the A-train and beyond and peek into this passionate way of life through authentic photography and several surfers’ personal journeys. Discover what it takes to brave the cold Atlantic Ocean and get a fresh insight on the Big Apple’s hidden surf subculture.
An adventurous photographer Andreea Waters has developed relationships with local New York surfers, absorbed scarcely available knowledge about the Atlantic ocean and climate, and placed herself in these elements without reservation. To respect the locals and their underground culture, there is no mention of where the specific action takes place. Locations may include Rockaway, Montauk, Long Beach, Lido Beach, and Northern New Jersey.

Originally from Bucharest, Romania, Andreea Waters discovered Rockaway Beach, NY, where her surf photography began, in May 2012. When you least expect it she is on the beach, taking powerful photographs that represent timeless moments in New York surfing.
