Niu Beach

Niu Beach is an S-facing beach break in East Honolulu, Hawaii, United States. It picks up swell from ENE to E and SE to W, and land, islands, reefs or shallow banks block about 34% of the directions it faces. Offshore wind here blows from the N: light winds or N breezes usually mean the cleanest surf, while S onshores chop it up.
