Honoliʻi

Honoliʻi is an ENE-facing reef break in Hilo, Hawaii, United States. It picks up swell from NNW to E, and land, islands, reefs or shallow banks block about 52% of the directions it faces. Offshore wind here blows from the WSW: light winds or WSW breezes usually mean the cleanest surf, while ENE onshores chop it up.
