Local Knowledge & Surf Guide

Local Knowledge

Little Beach in Maui is a fairly exposed reef break with inconsistent surf. Summer is the favored time of year for surfing here. When it does break, conditions are best when a south-southwest swell pairs with offshore winds from the east-northeast. When the surf is up, crowds are likely. Hazards include urchins, rips/undertow, rocks, localism, and sharks, so use caution. While it's not the most dependable location, the month of June tends to offer the best chance for consistent, clean waves.
