Shark Pit is a surf spot located in Lahaina. It's known for its shallow waters and powerful wave action. Surfers should be aware that this spot can be a bit challenging at times due to the split swell window in the area. The name "Shark Pit" reflects its reputation, so it's good to be cautious while you enjoy the waves.

The waves here can get pretty intense, especially when the South to SouthWest swells roll in. Shark Pit handles swell sizes at around 3ft (about 0.9 meters) and offers both left and right waves, but the lefts tend to be more consistent. You will find that it breaks over an uneven reef, so it's mainly suited for expert surfers. The best winds come from the NorthEast, and you can surf at low, mid, or high tides, although low tide can be a bit sketchy, so keep that in mind.

If you're planning to hit Shark Pit, it's worth noting that there are more waves available to the south. This can give you some options if you find the conditions aren't quite right at Shark Pit. Just remember to stay alert!
