Surfers in Residence at OUTRIGGER Waikiki Beach Resort returns with another inspiring episode, hosted by world-renowned surf photographer Zak Noyle.

Born and raised in Honolulu, Zak has captured some of the world’s most iconic waves, with work featured in National Geographic, ESPN and leading surf publications. As a Beachcomber Original and third-generation photographer, Zak brings deep cultural roots and a genuine connection to Hawai‘i’s surf community.

In this episode, Zak sits down with Kekoa Cazimero: professional surfer, entrepreneur and founder of AVVA Brand. Raised in a family deeply rooted in Hawaiian surfing traditions, Kekoa has carved his own path, turning surfing into a platform for mentorship, community uplift and cultural expression. Through AVVA, he champions local athletes, builds opportunities for youth and invests back into the community that shaped him.

Kekoa shares stories of perseverance, identity and growth from navigating the surf world at a young age to redefining success as giving back. Together, Zak and Kekoa explore what it means to lead with purpose, honor Hawaiian surf culture and carry community forward with every wave.

Join us at one of the most legendary breaks in the world as we dive into Kekoa’s journey from surf lineage to community leader, straight from the shores of Waikīkī.
