My name is Javaun, but I go by Javii or local surfer,I am a competitive surfer (currently #3 in Jamaica) and surf instructor with 20 years of surf experience. I’ve seen a lot of beaches all over the world but my favorite one is Boston Beach in Portland, Jamaica, where I learned to surf, in the heart of the community i grew up in. I love to surf there, to teach there, and explore the nature all around me when I am out of the water. My Fav is food: Ackee and saltfish, our National dish here on the island. When the sea is flat I love to cook on open fire beachside with my friends.
