Lineup Insights

The Wave

Expect lots of paddlers and quick peak-hopping near the Duke Kahanamoku statue.

When active Canoes prefers south-southeast groundswells with light north-to-northeast offshore breezes.

Low-mid tides usually produce the cleanest, longest rides but the spot will still work across tide stages.

The lineup is extremely busy and dominated by longboarders and surf lessons.
