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.

Sveta Marina Croatia






Hey Crew,

We just returned from five days in Croatia. One of our favorite spots in the whole wide world is a little secluded campground on the Istra Peninsula of Croatia. Many of you have seen pictures from our other trips down there, and this year was epic again. Here are a few pics of our campsite, and the local area. The water gets so deep so fast, and with lots of tropical fish, octopus, and tuna there is always something down there to look at. The place is great for scuba, but I usually just freedive. Beautiful water and mountains. Anna and I would like to spend several weeks there next time. Here are some highlights of the trip.
