Chill Spot - It's a crazy left right. I've seen it overhead on the far break in S. swells. Watch out for crazy boils and reef on the inside break (go right!).

- To the guy that mentioned there is nothing on kauai in the summer. Summer in Kauai Is nearly as good as in the winter you just din't know were to go. I sure Mauai has goot breaks in the summer too. there Is one that I don'tknow the name of That I saw when visiting my dad that was Swear to god a looked like pipe line but way faster and longer. IT was amaizine hardly anybody could pull in but when they did they got pitted for ever. IT was 2 summers ago when the islands got a masive south swell. Before I visted my dad I wass working in Poipu on kauai and would go to Shipys and look at 20 foot waves break 8 yards from the beach. The same day a Construction Contracter died wile surfing. So don't talk shit about summer time surf on the islands because you just don't know where to go.

1000 Peaks - aka - SHARKS - Surfed here a few years ago, fun. Absolutely no one in the water by me and my bros. But I noticed a lot of signs with shark warnings. Asked a local about it. He was like, "yeah, you don't have to worry about locals here, they know better. And if I was you I wouldn't be out there at dawn or dusk - feeding time." Needless to say, we decided to check out some other places...
