Surf Pu`u poa

Pu`u Poa - Princeville, Hawaii Pu`u Poa features powerful, hollow waves breaking over a coral reef, offering both right and left-hand rides. The spot is accessible via a short walk from a small parking lot near the St. Regis Hotel. Caution is advised due to eroding stairs and sharp coral heads, especially at low tide. Nestled at the base of tall cliffs, Pu`u Poa is known for its less crowded atmosphere compared to nearby surf spots. It works well at all tides, with optimal conditions during rising tides and when the swell comes from the north or northwest. While the spot can be fun with smaller waves and calm winds, surfers should remain vigilant due to the presence of urchins, rips, and the potential for shark encounters. This location is ideal for those seeking a more relaxed surf experience, but safety precautions are essential.
