Local Knowledge & Surf Guide

Local Knowledge

Waimea Rivermouth in Kauai is an exposed beach break offering fairly consistent surf, especially during the summer months. It performs best when a south swell meets offshore winds from the north-northeast, generating both left and right-hand waves across the sandbars. The break is surfable at all tide stages, and when it's firing, it can draw a crowd. Hazards to watch for include strong rips, submerged rocks, and sea urchins. August is typically the peak month for clean, rideable conditions at Waimea Rivermouth.
