Coming towards Hawi town from Kawaihae you will pass a gated community named Puakea Bay Ranch on youy left, take the next left after that and you wil go down a road that is filled with potholes follow this road to the bottom and on your left you will find a cemnt driveway with a dirt parking lot and a white pickett fence, the break is right in front of the parking lot. This break is also featured in the surf video: The Fifth Symphony Document with Kelly Slater and Shane dorian along with other local breaks like the Lighthouse, and Keokea.

This a dangerous spot, do not go out without friends to help you or when its huge. Surfing is like a 5 second wave before you gotta bail or get turned to burger meat. The local bodyboarders are very well attuned to the spot, ask them for some tips. I go freediving of the coast there I have never seen a shark.

Crazy Sick Pits
This wave can hurt you badly. Extremely rocky and dangerous, better left to look at and respect from afar. Huge sharks off Upolu too.
