Kalapueo

Kalapueo is an NE-facing beach break in East Honolulu, Hawaii, United States. It picks up swell from SE to SSE and NW to E, and land, islands, reefs or shallow banks block about 33% of the directions it faces. Offshore wind here blows from the SW: light winds or SW breezes usually mean the cleanest surf, while NE onshores chop it up.
