WAVES: TWO OF THE BEST

-

COCONUTS Fun Level: 9/10

Crowd Level: 9/10 Directly out in front of the resort you can keep a watchful eye on Coconuts, a solid fast hollow outer reef righthande­r. Coconuts needs a decent size SW swell and N winds to do its thing. And if it does, you’ll be in for some incredible rides, this wave often gets called the HTs of the South Pacific! MULIVAi (AKA The Left/Wakas/Posalas) Fun Level: 9/10

Crowd Level: 9/10 Another outer reef left-hand break commonly known as The Left(Wakas/ Posalas) is a quick 5-8 minute boat ride southwest from the beach at Sinalei. There’s always something to surf at The Left and it is a wave of many faces. When it’s under head high, it can be a fun wackable thing, and when it starts to get overhead, it becomes a fast throaty barrel. At double overhead on up you might get a glimpse of its heavier mini Teahupo’o impression!
