- This is a nice easy spot for all levels of kite surfer and windsurfers, and is found on the north side of the Grapevine Lake.

- A nice consistent break right on the edge of Honolulu, this is good for all levels of experience and has all the facilities you need close by.
- It takes some effort to get out here, but it’s worth it if you have the skill and the bottle to handle it. The largest surfed wave in the world is here, and we’re talking over 20 metres for it. It’s a truly epic spot, the place every surfer dreams of doing just once. If you do ride it, once isn’t enough and you’ll be back.
- If you are new to surfing, this is a good beginner’s wave where you can get to practice without feeling any pressure from other surfers and where everybody has a friendly attitude.

- Unlike the Blackrocks spot just to the north, this place is much more fun and is suitable for all experience levels, although the waves can get bigger in the winter and maybe a little bit too much for beginners then.
- This is a bit of a local spot. It doesn't break that often, only a few days a year, but if you happen to be nearby when it does then it is well worth a look. It isn't the biggest wave on the island, but you still need some experience to be able to handle it.
- This is a pretty consistent break suitable for experienced surfers. It is worth it for the novelty value alone, of riding wave alongside a plane as it floats in to land on the runway at the side of you.
- A regular and predictable break, this is a gorgeous spot will suit everybody but the absolute beginners. It is undeveloped and unspoiled, and has an old style feel to it that just makes you want to relax and enjoy every minute of it.
- Unlike its baby sister just down the road, this spot is only for the pros when it gets big. The scenery is fantastic, and quite frankly you can easily lose concentration just gazing at that as you ride the wave in.
- Big wave surfing was born at this location, and it is still here today. Only experienced surfers need apply as this can be a fearsome wave, not very forgiving if you get it wrong. You really feel the power of nature here, and it will make you feel small.
- This is a quiet spot that provides a very regular break and it is suitable for all levels of experience. If you like a solitary place with the wave to yourself, then head here for a look.
- This makes up part of the trinity of good waves around here, along with Chuns Reef and Jockos Point, so if conditions are right you’ll be able to join them together.
