Best surf arrives on NW-NNE long-period swell with light E-SE trades.
Medium tides tend to tune the takeoff zones and keep the inside waves more forgiving.

Lineup Guide
The outer tip channels powerful rights into the Haleiwa boat channel while the inside reef and shallow sand near shore attract surf schools and turtles, so expect mixed ability lineups and occasional boat/harbor traffic.
