Maui in March
Wife suprised me with tickets to Maui for my 60th b-day. Wil most likely have to surf the North or west shore Maybe the harbor by the airport.
Me- old , longboarder , solo
Best spot not to get in a hassle ?
Im thinking windmills ? Kahului , Honokohau , maybe Honolua

If it's not huge Ho'okipa was great when I was there in January. It can be huge in winter though.
When the swell was small, it was manageable in all respects. I had a ball.
Paia bay isn't nearly as interesting or nice, but I got a few waves there too.
Beautiful part of the globe. Honoloa is my dream wave but I don't think I'd be welcomed into the lineup there. There's a vibe just watching it when it's on.
Post pics. You're lucky dude. Hope you score a few.

Im back. had some fun. Got to surf Ho'okipa three days out of six.
Tuesday afternoon- March 15th. Pretty Big and really wind blown but I had to get wet. hould have surfed the point but I went for Middles. WAY bigger than it looked. Caught 4 waves, broke my rental board, almost came in on the dry reef due to trying to paddle/swim a 3 foot long piece of foam in 4-7 foot surf with a 25 knt wind blowning.
Thursday- Much Funner. 2-3 and out at the point. Caught a shit ton of waves.
Saturday -Really fun. At the point again. 3-5 maybe some bigger sets. Ended by paddeling back over to middles and catching some fun ones.
Bummer- Had to buy the rental longboard I broke. Plus Side- No Rescue from the Beach patrol
Had a great time over there.
The most fun was renting a Cessna 172 and making this touch and go over on Molokai

Did you get to surf Jaws (Pe'ahi) or Honolulu Bay?

I didn’t think they rent planes to random tourists.
And there he is. Pretty cool.. . .

Jaws last broke about 3 weeks ago. It's not a common thing.
