Santosha of the South Pacific
In 1974 the film The Forgotten Island of Santosha played to surfers in the USA and Australia. 'Santosha' was a supposedly mythical island where perfect, empty waves reeled off under warm sunny skies. Viewers were encouraged to seek their own version of it. The island was, however, Mauritius, located in the western Indian Ocean. The filmmakers created the moniker to protect the location.
