Makapuu Beach has become well known for its unpredictable conditions. On calm days, its clear sandy waters attract swimmers and snorkelers. But red flagged days can bring drastic change.
At Makapuu Beach, when calm conditions exist, its waters can become clear and sandy - offering an appealing environment for aquatic activities such as surfing. The beach draws swimmers and snorkelers during periods of calm weather when water conditions allow for these activities.
On days marked with red flags, swimming is prohibited to signal potentially hazardous conditions. At such times, deep sea waves often create powerful shore break. Red-flagged days might not offer optimal water conditions, they do provide perfect conditions for bodysurfing and boarders in Kona windswells. They have hollow rides with glass that attract those who are interested in these water sports.
