Dove Review

Ride the waves with this spectacular documentary about surfing. “80 Waves” features exotic locales, breathtaking scenery, and cultural experiences from around the world. As you visit places like Bali, Fiji, and Hawaii, you’ll learn about the different types of surfing and see some of the amazing creatures that live underwater, including whales, great white sharks, turtles and deep sea fish.

Since this documentary focuses on the sport of surfing, please be aware that many of the people in the film wear bikinis and bathing suits, if that concerns you. With that said, we are pleased to award “80 Waves” the Dove Family Approved Seal for ages 12-plus.
