Typically crowded Lowers, Kanaha
The trade winds picked up a notch or two yesterday, enough for me to be able to get out on my 5.7 at Uppers. A fairly good sized northwest swell was running yesterday with the bigger sets in the logo- to mast-high range. The sets got a bit less consistent as the day progressed. By the end of my session at 3pm it was getting spottier and spottier.
Lots of people out. Lowers was its typically crowded zoo. Took a few photos of that so that those of you unfamiliar with Maui and Kanaha crowds can get an idea of what it’s like. Uppers was a bit congested as well, but no where near as bad as Lowers.
We should have a new reinforcing swell arriving today that’s even bigger than yesterday’s and the winds should be a little stronger. Both wind and waves should last through the weekend and into Monday. After that the forecast starts looking a bit unclear.
