Oʻahu · Where to watch

Where to watch: Waimea Bay

View Waimea Bay from established public viewpoints and obey closures, barriers and local authorities.

Give the ocean room

Large swells can send water far beyond the normal shoreline. Stay well back from cliff edges, harbour walls, rocks and low coastal roads.
