And for those who already know their way around a wave, there are plenty of outer reef breaks to offer a challenge – especially during summer swells. Kaisers (park at Ala Moana Boat Harbor) is a consistent, often crowded reef break that draws both locals and tourists; beware of the shallow rocky bottom, especially during low tide. Ala Moana Bowls (park at Ala Moana Boat Harbor) is a world-class wave known for its barrel in the shallow rocky waters; also, many surf contests are held here.
