Kalama Beach

Kalama Beach is an ENE-facing beach break in East Honolulu, Hawaii, United States. It picks up swell from SE to SSE and NW to ESE, and land, islands, reefs or shallow banks block about 36% 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.
