Spot guide

Kamakahonu Beach is an SSW-facing beach break in Kailua, Hawaii, United States. It picks up swell from S to WNW, and land, islands, reefs or shallow banks block about 43% of the directions it faces. Offshore wind here blows from the NNE: light winds or NNE breezes usually mean the cleanest surf, while SSW onshores chop it up.
