Prince Harry surfing in California

Prince Harry, the Duke of Sussex, appears to have adjusted well to his new life in California, recently showcasing his surfing abilities. A video shared on Instagram by surfing legend Raimana Van Bastolaer features Harry confidently riding waves in a man-made pool at Kelly Slater’s Surf Ranch. The clip begins with Harry entering the water solo, greeted by cheers from his coach. He impressively stands on the surfboard without losing his balance, earning praise from social media users, as surfing is regarded as one of the most challenging sports to master. Interestingly, Harry isn’t the only royal to have tried surfing; his brother, Prince William, and their father, King Charles, have also enjoyed the sport.

Once his coach signals him, Harry leaps into the water and navigates the waves like an expert. In the background, Raimana can be heard enthusiastically encouraging him, shouting, “Love you, brother. Enjoy, my brother.” Sharing the video, the coach expressed, “In Tahiti, we still call you Prince Harry, but at surfranch, it’s my brother. It was an honour to have you surf with me.”

Social Media Reactions

Responses to the post have been overwhelmingly positive. One user commented, “Prince Harry, you have always been my favorite royal guy, but now you stole my heart forever. That was awesome.”

Another remarked, “Good he is living his best life.”

One comment read, “Prince Harry? Wants to surf now? That is the best athletic accomplishment of any royal yet, besides hunting on horses.” Another noted, “Surfing was indeed a sport for kings, and we’re going back to the roots with the prince catching waves.”

An individual quipped, “This is the person they think is begging to go back to cold, wet England to live in a shoebox, lmao.” Another added, “Just goes to show, money can buy you anything.”

Since its posting, the video has attracted over 1.7 million views. According to the Daily Mail, Prince Harry and Meghan have recently purchased a home in Portugal. They are not alone, as Harry’s cousin, Princess Eugenie, and her husband, Jack Brooksbank, also own a property in the CostaTerra Golf and Ocean Club in Lisbon.
