Spot guide
Wailau Beach is an NNW-facing beach break in Maui County, Hawaii, United States. It picks up swell from WNW to E, and land, islands, reefs or shallow banks block about 31% of the directions it faces. Offshore wind here blows from the SSE: light winds or SSE breezes usually mean the cleanest surf, while NNW onshores chop it up.
