Polihale State Park
Edit SpotAbout
It is an Awesome place to camp and just surf! Build a fire, Play music and have a few cold beers after a day of surf, It can get Very Big here so be careful... When In Doubt, Dont Go Out!! Have Fun!
Additional Info:
Queens Pond is the best South end spot, you can go about another 1/4 mile but Military base after and No Trespassing, North of Queens Pond is all beach breaks, find a peak that looks good and paddle out, all the way to the North end of the beach at the start of the Na Pali (Cliff) you have another right hander that gets good on a N to NW swell called Echo's, it breaks right along the Big boulder rocks just off the cliffs, Sand with some rocks so be alert!
There are about 6 Pavilions a few have bathrooms and cold showers, and usually a built in BBQ...

Mostly beach breaks with the exception of a small section of reef called Queen's Pond (where the red marker is on the map) Its a right hander, Otherwise from there North its all Beach break and is ever changing with the different swells, All the way up where the Na Pali Begins is another sort of rocky sandy right hander called Echo's that breaks in front of all the rocks piled up near the cliffs...
