If you have what it takes to capture one of the biggest waves in the world, you can score a free burger at Islands Restaurants.

Welcome to Islands Restaurant in Redondo Beach.

On Wednesday, April 4, 2012, all Islands Restaurants are offering their signature Maverick Burger to guests that bring in a picture of a Mavericks Wave. Actually, a picture of any big wave can serve as your burger ticket.

The tasty deal is a shout out to the big wave riders at Mavericks Invitational Surf Contest. That wave riding contest pits man versus nature in a challenge to ride some of the biggest waves on the West Coast. Unfortunately, the contest didn’t place this year due to weather systems preventing the formation of the enormous waves the Maverick surf is known for.

Islands is a sponsor of the event and still wanted to celebrate the big waves by offering the namesake big burger for free to fans all over.

To get your free Mavericks burger, bring in a picture of a Mavericks wave (or any big wave) – printed out or even on your phone or camera – and you’re good. Here’s one to help you:

You can find another great picture (and more on this free deal) on the Islands Facebook page or over here on Wikipedia.

If video is your medium, or if you want to see how big the waves at Mavericks can get, check out this video of men and women sharing their stories of just how fierce these “liquid mountains” can be.

I’d rather be surfing?  With those waves, I’m not so sure.  Just gimme the free burger. 😀

In addition, a visit during happy hour (4-7 PM) will allow you to score discounts on drinks and appetizers too.
