Some are drawn to Africa for the culture, some for the natural beauty, but for Kassia Meador, it was the waves. The 26-year old Roxy pro-surfer just wrapped on a two-week-long trek across the beaches of Morocco where she got to experience the North African country's majestic sea scape first hand. I caught up with her as soon as she landed to to talk surf, sun and style.

Morocco! That’s the last place I'd think for surfing...
True, when most people think of Morocco they think of camels, deserts and snake charmers in the markets of Marrakech. But what most people don't know is that Morocco is home to some of the best right hand point breaks in the world. There is literally one world class point break after another.

How does it compare to the beaches of California?
We have some amazing beaches and point breaks in California. But if I were to compare Morocco to California it would be like apples to oranges. Both places have great surf but the California coast is more varied with rights, lefts, reef, sand and cobble stone whereas Morocco is primarily perfect right hand points.

You look pretty hot in those wet suits... what's your favorite brand and why?
Why thank you I work out...hahaha. No, seriously I love wetsuits because they make me feel like a super hero when I’m out in the water and I look to Roxy to lace me up with a warm comfy wettie that looks sweet too.

When on dry land, how would you describe your style -- in three words?
Street meets beach.

So what's next for you?
Laying low at home in San Diego surfing as much as possible, shooting photos and working on some art for a few shows I have coming up.
