Queen's

Surf Guide

Queen's is right in the heart of Waikiki, so expect there to always be a crowd, even if it's nearly flat. There will even be crowds before the sun comes up and after it goes down. Furthermore, expect a fair amount of that crowd to be tourists, many of whom may have never surfed before. This is just the established scene at Queen's, like it or not. On small to medium sized days, Queen's offers a fun but shorter left and a longer right, usually split evenly by a single A-frame peak. On bigger days, the wave turns into a nice long left -- one of the best on the South Shore, actually -- and a shorter right. This wave can barrel at times, but usually it is just an easy, rippable face.
