Kahalu'u Bay surfspot characteristics
More about Kahalu'u Bay surfspot
General: Kahalu'u offers a few different peaks for surfers to choose from, all of which are rolling and mellow -- thus perfect for the legions of novice surfers that flock here. Nevertheless, when a solid S or S-W swell shows up in the spring and summer months, the outermost peak of Kahalu'u Bay pumps out fun lefts and rights that offer a semi-steep drop and ripable lines. Tides: Medium tides Size: Waist-head high+ Wind: Calm or offshore from an easterly direction (NE to E to SE). Mornings usually always see light wind and clean conditions, before an afternoon seabreeze develops. Swell: Anything from the S to NW Bottom: Reef Paddling: Fairly short paddle for smaller days. Paddle becomes more the larger it gets. Spot Rating: Great for beginners most of the time, but fun for intermediate surfers on solid swells.
Usually best suited for beginner to intermediate levels.

Year-round. Winter NW-WNW swells and summer S-SW swells. Most consistent in summer.
