Just keep on going down Lower Main Street and you'll see a huge dirt area with choke dirt bikers. The harbor is right there and the spot is right off the rocks. Can't miss it. Plus get "Middles" right in the middle of the harbor. Holds up really good when it's huge!

Just watch out when the set comes in cause it comes in huge that doubles-up, triples-up, and sometimes triples-up!! VERY THICK WAVE!

The crowd is usually mellow and peoples are just having fun. Alot of bodyboarders too so kinda gotta watch out. Sometimes it's so steep and heavy nobody surfs just bodyboarders.

Save the Harbor From A Sluts like Marife Bato - For me Harbor is a Nice Place that it should be guarded and should not be messing up with people,why did I say this because this Marife bato is making the parking of Harbor a FUCKING PLACE the management should be aware on this!...And Im not doing stories this is True....

NO SUPERFERRY - This week the Superferry will be running, because of this, the coast guard will not let surfers, spongers, swimmers, etc. into the harbor, hours before and hours after the boat enters, this is just one more slap in the face to all the people of Maui, and Hawaii, and with 300 cars hitting our poor Maui road system everyday, can you say "roadrage"? Impeach Lingle.
