PK's is a popular surf spot located near the Prince Kuhio Condos, named after a 19th-century surfing pioneer. This spot is known for its unique breaks, with a mix of reef and live coral. It tends to attract a lot of surfers, including groms on the inside and local rippers on the outside, so be prepared for a crowded lineup. The vibe here is casual, and it’s a great place to catch some waves if you know what to expect.

The surf here works best on a SouthEast swell, but you can also ride it on a SouthWest swell. It handles swell sizes from about 2 feet (0.6 meters) and features both lefts and rights, making it versatile for surfers. The take-off point is pretty approachable, but as you ride, the waves travel over a mix of coral and lava and reform closer to the seawall. The preferred wind direction is NorthEast, and it can work on low, mid, or high tides, so you do have options throughout the day. This spot is suited for intermediate surfers, so keep that in mind if you’re planning to paddle out.

Nearby, there’s Centers, which has a more challenging peak that varies with swell direction. While PK's is more user-friendly, Centers is known for its hollow and shallow waves, aimed at expert surfers. If you’re looking for something more technical after hitting PK's, you might want to check that out.
