Lahaina Harbor

Lahaina Harbor sits on Maui's west side, a fun and accessible right-hander that catches summer south swells in the shadow of the West Maui Mountains. The wave breaks over reef near the historic harbor, offering friendly peaks that work for all skill levels. Protected from the relentless northeast trades, Lahaina enjoys glassy morning conditions when other spots are windswept. The tourist town vibe means crowds are common, but the wave's forgiving nature makes sharing easy. A perfect introduction to Maui surfing or an afternoon session when you need something mellow.
