Spot guide

Kanenelu Beach is an NE-facing beach break in Kaʻaʻawa, Hawaii, United States. It picks up swell from NW to ESE, and land, islands, reefs or shallow banks block about 35% 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.
