Description

Sunset Beach - Oahu, Hawaii Sunset Beach features powerful right-hand reef breaks over a rocky bottom, delivering hollow and fast waves. The spot works at all tides and is known for its challenging conditions, especially when swells exceed 2 meters. Access is straightforward with beach parking available and a short walk from Kam Hwy. This iconic surf destination, located past Kammieland, offers various sections like Vals, Inside Bowl, and West Peak, catering to surfers of all skill levels. However, the waves can be unpredictable, demanding respect and patience. As swells rise, expect intense paddling and strong currents, particularly during larger swells. The Kammieland Rip can assist in returning to the lineup but can also be exhausting. Surfers should be equipped with appropriate boards, ranging from shortboards to guns, depending on conditions. Overall, Sunset Beach is a classic spot that requires preparation and an understanding of its dynamic nature.
