Lineup
at Waimea Bay
Famous big wave surf break with the largest surfable
waves on the North Shore. Between 4-10 foot it
breaks next to the inside rocks and is considered
"pinballs." It starts breaking on the
outside boil in the middle of the bay around 10-12
foot, but big wave veterans don't consider Waimea
to be "real" until its 18-20 feet, and
waves of up to 25-30 foot have been ridden at
"The Bay."

There are about 5 different webcams these days
in the church above the bay.

View
from the mountain above the Valley.
There
is a buoy
located about a mile outside of the bay, it is
used to predict really big waves coming through,
or current conditions.
