The Lowdown

Alright, Rusty here, let’s talk Waiehu beach park on Maui.

For the next eleven days, honestly, forget it. You’ve got swell running between about 2 ft and 5 ft, but it’s all short-period junk out of the east-northeast, and the wind is blowing cross-onshore at 9 to 12 mph every single session. The water’s a warm 79°, which is right on average for this time of year, but you won’t care because the waves are a choppy, bumpy mess. The combined energy is weak to moderate for most of that first week, and the wave comment just says poor.

Wednesday the 23rd, the period stretches out a bit to 11 seconds, but the wind is still cross-on from the ENE at 9 mph. That’s not enough to clean it up, and a longer-period swell with onshore wind just makes for lumpy lines at this reef and point.

Friday the 24th and Saturday the 25th, the swell direction goes more east and the period gets long – 14 to 17 seconds – with energy climbing to moderate. But that wind stays cross-on. This spot is best on a north-northeast swell, so angled east energy isn’t its friend, and the wind kills any hope.

Finally, on Sunday the 26th, there’s a spark. The swell holds at around 4 ft from the east, with a very long period of 15 to 16 seconds, and the combined energy hits a strong 1003. The wind is still cross-on at 9 mph, but this is the first session that gets a “maybe” – it’s marginal, but with that much power behind it, you might snag a few lined-up waves if the tide plays ball. This is the one to circle.

After that, from Monday the 27th through the end of the run, the energy drops back to moderate, the period shortens a bit, and the cross-on wind sticks around. The swell pushes up to 5 ft on the 29th, but with the wind, it’s just a messy closeout.

So here’s the deal: Waiehu beach park is a consistent spot, but for most of this 16-day window, the wind is going to ruin it. The only real shot is the morning of July 26th when that big, long-period east swell rolls in. It’s not perfect, but it’s the best you’re getting. Everything else is a write-off unless you’re on a kite.

Rusty.

A general guide to surfing at Waiehu beach park can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu.

Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).

Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Waiehu beach park may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
