People always ask what SAMA means. It started as kind of a joke. It was a sleeting, snowy day in early December. My friend and I were surfing a swell in Grand Haven. I looked over at him knowing we were supposed to both be at pre-Christmas family functions soon, and said "We are like Self Absorbed Michigan Adventurers." That kind of stuck, and like many of our friends we have a common passion for outdoor sports in Michigan, and we go out in any weather to get our sessions. He replied "Ya, SAMA!"

So it was born, the SAMA logo was fashioned by another like minded surfer friend from Grand Haven. SAMA is for all of you year round Michiganders and vacationers who know, love, and respect all the outdoor activities there are to do in Michigan. No matter the weather you will find us us out enjoying all the benefits of our unique freshwater paradise.

Rocktober in the Grand Haven!



This has been one of the most active surf weeks all year.  Solid waves all week, and it looks like the weekend is going to be filled with wind and waves as well!  I love this photo because is shows one our our local breaks from the surfers perspective that is very hard to capture in the lakes.  The gray skies in the background are the October signature of a great day filled with elevator drops and big bottom turns.
