Surf Avalanche Oahu

Avalanche Oahu - North Shore, Oahu Avalanche Oahu features a powerful left-breaking reef wave, ideal for experienced surfers. This outside reef break works best with swells of 1.8 to 2.4 meters, requiring a solid paddle out from Haleiwa. The bottom consists of sharp coral and rocks, so caution is advised. Located just outside the Haleiwa boat harbor, this spot offers a mix of challenging conditions and stunning scenery. The wave is best surfed at all tides, with rising and falling tide movements. While the crowd is generally sparse during the week, weekends can see a few surfers. Surfers should be mindful of rips, undertow, and the presence of sharks. The local vibe emphasizes humility and respect, making it essential for surfers to navigate the waters with care, especially as swells increase. Whether you're on a shortboard or bodyboard, Avalanche Oahu promises an exhilarating experience for those willing to paddle out.
