Spot guide

Pāhoa is a WSW-facing beach break in Maui County, Hawaii, United States. It picks up swell from SW to W, and land, islands, reefs or shallow banks block about 76% of the directions it faces. Offshore wind here blows from the ENE: light winds or ENE breezes usually mean the cleanest surf, while WSW onshores chop it up.
