Baldwin Beach Park surf guide

Baldwin Beach Park is a popular surf spot located on the north shore of Maui. It offers a good mix of wave types, making it accessible for surfers of different skill levels. With its sandy beach and some patchy reef, the park attracts a lot of visitors, particularly during the summer months when the conditions are favorable. The overall vibe here is relaxed, but you can expect a decent crowd since it’s known for its consistency.

The surf here handles swell sizes starting at around 2ft (0.6m) and can go up to head high. The optimal swell direction is from the NorthEast, but it can also pick up waves from the NorthWest. You’ll find both left and right-breaking waves, and they work best during low to mid to high tide. The beach can produce some mushy, longboard-friendly peaks as well as crunching shore dump, catering to both beginners and more experienced surfers. The wind typically blows from the south, making the conditions more enjoyable.

While Baldwin Beach Park may get crowded due to its consistency, it's a great spot for beginners to find their footing on the waves. Just remember, if you want a more laid-back surf experience, you can check out nearby Paia Bay, which tends to offer easier options without the same level of traffic.

Welcome! If you’re new to surf forecasting, check out this quick guide.

Forecast Cheat Sheet

Short on time? Focus on wave energy. It’s the best single metric to gauge how big and powerful the waves will be.

Click any table cell to jump to that forecast hour. The map will update with forecast arrows, so you can see if wind and swell direction are lining up.

Use the table sidebar to switch units for height and speed.

Log your surf sessions to compare forecasts with real sessions and sharpen future predictions.

On the map, click a metric label to bring that arrow to the front — handy when arrows overlap.

Models and Updates

Surfnerd blends multiple global and local wind and swell models using advanced interpolation and spatial techniques to create an "ensemble" forecast. Forecasts are refreshed hourly.

Surf Predictions

Our AI-driven algorithm scores surf quality, shown by green, orange, and gray dots. Each forecast hour is rated for wind, swell, and tide quality, then combined into an overall score. Here’s the scale:

Perfect
Good
Average
Bad or No Data

Session logs also feed the algorithm — the more you log, the smarter your forecasts get.

With Surfnerd, no more "you should have been here yesterday"

Wind certainty

Wind certainty tells you how much the weather models agree on the forecast.

  • High certainty: Models agree closely; forecast is reliable.
  • Medium certainty: Some disagreement; conditions may shift slightly.
  • Low certainty: Models diverge; treat forecast with caution.

We calculate this by comparing wind speed, gust and direction from multiple models (like GFS, ECMWF, Arome, and Harmonie) and seeing how closely they match. They are weighted, meaning that some models count more than others, depending on how good they are for a certain spot.
