Beaches to Go Skimboarding in Hawaii
We now add to our list of great places to go boarding in Hawaii.
1. Pounders-Oahu: This place is good spot not just for boarding, but also for sponging and bodysurfing. The breaks at Pounders is usually really big and strong, a lot of shorebreaks, it has a nice Hawaiian curl to it. Summertime is usually the best time to go skimboarding at Pounders. The waves in winter usually get too big for anything, so plan your vacations accordingly. Usually there’s some college kids hanging around this beach but not too much of a crowd. Also, the sand tends to get extremely soft (like quicksand) in some spots, so look out.
2. Poipu-Oahu: This place has been known to be outstanding for skimboarding. The shorebreak here is great and sometimes there’s barrels. The only downside to this beach is when you get out so far you hit rocks on the right side of the beach. Sometimes in the afternoon it can get a little crowded, other than that it’s a great beach.
3. Hanalei Bay-Kauai: The waves here can get pretty big which make it great to board on, especially in the winter. There isn’t much of a crowd at this beach. Also there aren’t any rocks at this beach which every skimboarder loves. Rocks and skimboards don’t mix well.
If you ever get the chance make sure that you head over to Hawaii for great people, food, surfing and of course all types of boarding.
