Like "Endless Summer" which preceded it, "Blue Surfari" is a well regarding surf film that presents the sport as seen through the eyes of Ricky Grigg, the 1967 World Champion surfer and oceanographer. The film includes an awesome surf soundtrack by the Blazers and is narrated by Nal Buckley. Some of the highlights in this film include footage of the Pacific Coast Highway (PCH), surfboard maker Dale Velzy shaping boards, shooting arrows and riding a dune buggy, and the iconic wave fotage from "Hawaii Five-O". It also includes a bikini contest with the Blazers performing, tandem surfing with Mike Doyle at the Huntington Beach Surf Championships, and spaghetti fight between surfers and bikini girls.
