Movies shot on the North Shore of Oahu

The North shore of Oahu is such a famously recognizable and iconic place. Besides the large, consistent waves that barrage our coastline during the winter months, Movies shot on the North Shore of Oahu have undoubtedly helped make it this way. It’s the 7 mile miracle and they don’t call it that for nothing. What does that mean, you may be asking yourself? Well, here you’ll find the most concentrated and celebrated stretch of world-class surf breaks on the planet. So this means, especially if you are a surfer, that the region is literally and figuratively home to the famous Seven Mile Miracle. Experienced surfers, to the novice alike can enjoy this amazingly abundant stretch of beaches.
