Extra! Extra! Read all about it! Agatha Christieâyes, the murder mystery queenâditched dreary England, left her toddler with the family, and went chasing waves around the world in 1922. And guess what? She surfed. In a dress. Before it was cool.
In this episode, we dive into Agathaâs unexpected life as an early surf girl. From âsurf bathing with planksâ in South Africa to paddling out (and nearly wiping out naked) in Waikiki, she documented it allâawkward swimsuits, heavy boards, reef paddles, and overpriced rentals included.
Come for the vintage surf lore, stay for the drama, and leave with a whole new respect for Dame Agatha, wave chaser.
