Break types, ratings, and local tips for each beach.
Hoʻokipa Beach Park on Maui's north shore is world famous for windsurfing and kitesurfing but also has excellent surf for experts. Multiple breaks—from the right-hand Pavilions to the fast left at Lanes—offer powerful waves over a shallow reef, and the trades can quickly turn the lineup into a challenging windswept arena. Beginners should stay on the sand and watch, as currents and urchins pose real dangers.
