Pine Trees Access
  This is a local favorite! On the Kona side, just south of the airport. Off the 19 hwy go West toward the Energy Lab, turn left onto a dirt road, where the lab is and drive along the beach. You do not need 4x4, but a rental will get thrashed, a truck with good suspension is recommended. Head toward a large out cropping of trees, right in front of it to the left and right are a few breaks....pick one that looks good and hit it all day!

Additional Surfing Infos
 It is mostly a right, but you can go left too. It is December 22 today and it is about 2-4ft and very clean in the am, blown out a bit in the pm. Great view of dolphins doing flips when out.
Park along side the dirt road, by the sand. May want to were booties, my feet are pretty cut up after one day.
  Overview
  Atmosphere You will meet mostly locals camping and surfing 9overnight camping is illegal, but no one seems to care) Best bet not to get hassled, is to be a decent surfer (no body boards) and either say very little or nothing at all to locals...DO NOT snake any one!
  General This break is sooo much fun on a good day...usually breaks all year round...mega fun at 4-6ft (that's face size).

If you have to be experienced to surf here then I guess you have to be experienced to handle the shorebreak at Hapuna too. I never like Pinetrees. I thought it was a POS break with way too many people out. Fun place to go camp though. Until it got developed. At least the new golf course will get rid of all the drug users and homeless people down there....hopefully.

Fee to park at Pinetrees?
In Rod Sumpter's Surfing Hawaii he states there is a fee to park here. Did it change with the new golf course?

Nothing like the OC!!
I would hate to break it to you but The Big Island is nothing like the OC. The population on The Big Island is 150,000 the OC is nearing 4,000,000. You are upset about a golf course being put in. In Orange County the developers rip up the golf course to put in houses.
