Windsurfing Maui A-Z Windsurfing Maui A-Z Apr 16, 2004 / Community Maui By Frank "SIMS" Bingel Much has been said and written about Maui, but there remain many untold stories and emotions associated with this windsurfing mecca. Look down and the water is the deepest of blues. Look to your left and you see people taking lessons. Look far to your right and you see pros throwing loops off nothing. Everyone who has had the good luck to sail at Maui long enough (including myself) has a great story to tell, in fact, many great stories . . . breaking or losing half of their sailing equipment on the infamous and dreaded Hookipa "rocks" and the feeling of absolute terror in the impact zone with not a breath of wind in your sail.On a given day, Maui has a greater variety of sailing conditions for all levels of boardsailors than anywhere in the world. Maui's motto says it all :"MAUI NO KA OI". Translated it's :Maui is the best.This is truly a place designed for Windsurfing. Sailing Conditions: For those looking for high winds: visit Maui in the summer. From May to August, the northeast trade winds average 15 to 25 miles/hr, with many days in the 20 to 30 mile/hr range. The summer is also when the wave swell is at its smallest. For those who are looking for Maui's famous surf: visit it when there are both trades and waves - spring (March to May) and fall (September to November). From December to February, the northeasterlies are less consistent, but there are still great sailing days during this time - big wave days especially! During the winter, Kona storms will bring in 10-to 20-knot southwesterlies to the south shore. The sailing is side-onshore, port tack, with conditions similar to lake sailing. Another typical winter occurrence is 5-to 15-knot northerlies. These winds funnel between the West Maui Mountains and the Haleakala Crater creating great side-offshore, slalom sailing on the south shore. KANAHA BEACH PARK - Kanaha is a beautiful beach park with long, sandy beaches, grassy area for rigging, fresh water showers, shading trees, and picnic tables, all located in Kahului on the northshore. Sideshore northeast tradewinds blow consistently during June - August, with typically flat water sailing on the inside, and good bump and jump conditions on the outside. Between October and May you can find waves on the outside reefs, ranging from small wind swell to expert wave riding conditions. Most windsurf schools operate at Kanaha because of the consistent wind and warm water. All year round it is a perfect place for any level sailor. SPRECKELSVILLE / CAMP ONE - Up the coast from Kanaha there is a residential area called Spreckelsville which has many beautiful sandy beaches. The main area to sail is affectionately known as "Sprecks", which provides pristine blue-green water and white sandy beach. Parking is limited, so arrive early. There are no facilities or showers. The sailing level is typically intermediate to advanced, with the reef making for more chop and breaking waves. Camp One is a no frills beach at the end of the Kahului Airport runway. The place has no showers, no grass rigging areas, no toilet, and barely a trash can. It does have a beautiful beach and the only breaking waves for most of the summer. The place is frequented by German's, Australians, Italians, French and local windsurfers. It's a place where you want to be polite and follow the local traditions and laws to the letter. HOOKIPA - Hookipa is the windsurfing mecca of the world. Host to World Cup sailing and surfing contests, Hookipa rips. Jagged lava rock, exposed reefs, a gnarly shorebreak, light inside winds and powerful rip currents make this north shore difficult to launch off limits for most sailors. Experts launch from the Beach Park, just downwind from the pavillion. Expect crowds, with many sailors lulling around the outside and looking for a good wave to rip on the inside. When the water flattens in the summer months, slalom sailors launch here at Hookipa and blast downwind along the north shore. KIHEI - Kihei is the south shore's most popular windsurfing spot. When the tradewinds blow north/northeast the pavillion located at the intersection of Ohukai Street and South Kihei Road is a great place to sail. The reef can be shallow on the inside, especially near the Maui Sunset, so consult the locals before venturing out. Kihei is good for all level sailors and has a variety of accommodations nearby!

Stapley Drive - Map it! (480) 539-1328 Area: West Mesa Price: Up to $8 Health Inspection Reports Hawaiian Plate Lunch is the specialty at this spiffy fast-food operation established on Oahu nearly 30 years ago. Plate Lunch is a classic Hawaiian meal composed of Asian and Islander dishes (katsu, kalbi, bulgogi, curry, mahi mahi and barbecued chicken, for example) served with steamed rice and macaroni salad (the lone American contribution).Considering it's fast food, this stuff is amazingly good. Best bets include kalbi (short ribs), bulgogi (barbecue beef), katsu and lau lau (smoky slow-roasted and shredded pork).Noodle soups, called saimin, are worth a try too, and if you're brave, check out the brick-size musubi -- a Hawaiian spin on sushi (giant rice cake and nori) wrapped with meat or fish. Hawaiians love it with Spam and a touch of barbecue sauce, which sounds weird but tastes good. For dessert, there's haupia, a smooth coconut-flavored and gelatinized dessert reminiscent of flan.Take the kids. They'll like the food and it's dirt cheap.Lunch and dinner are served daily. User Comments From: Jaime Date: 2004-11-12 Ratings: Food-5 Service-5 Cleanliness-5 Overall-5 Comments: Absolutley "DA BEST." L & L makes all plate lunches fresh to order.
