Lahaina Surf Guide
Hawaii's Largest Selection of ActivitiesThe surf in Lahaina really only comes alive during the summer season. Crowds of surfers will poor over from the other side of the island in search of some waves to ride. Generally the surf here stays fairly small, but occasionally a large south swell will come through that will bring overhead surf to the entire coastline.

The Lahaina Breakwall is located on the south side of the Lahaina Harbor's boating channel. On most days you will see groups from the local surf schools conducting their lessons on the inside right.
Lahaina Harbor's lefts and rights are the two most high performance summer waves on the west side of the island. The crowd here is generally filled with some of the top talent in the area, and if you're not an experienced surfer you might want to stick to spectating.
Oluwalu is a fun place to surf. It's bottom is made up of a mix of sand, rocks and small patches of reef which makes it a much more forgiving break then many of the other razor sharp reefs that cover the island.
