Overview

Waiehu Beach Park is a kitesurfing spot located on the north coast of Maui, west of Kahului. The spot benefits from consistent northeast trade winds and offers a semi-protected body of water with shallow waters. The sand and pebble beach allows for a decent launch. Conditions are suited to intermediate riders, with moderate chop and possible gusts in the late afternoon. The nearby reef requires particular attention at low tide.
