Rescue: HI-Surf

Rescue: HI-Surf follows a tight-knit squad of lifeguards who patrol Oahu's North Shore, where waves, winds, and crowds push lifesaving to the limit. Each day brings new emergencies, from sudden shorebreaks to stranded swimmers caught in rip currents. The team's skill, quick thinking, and bravery are tested as they race into hazardous conditions to pull people from danger and provide medical aid on the sand and in the surf. While the hazards are intense, the heart of the show lies in the camaraderie among the guards and the personal stakes behind every rescue. The setting captures Hawaii's rugged beauty and the relentless rhythm of the season's swells.
