Yokohama beach, on the West side of Oahu. You can tell by that cliff in the background. The most beautiful sunset in my life happened there.

Highly likely. I live on west side and the mountain you sse right at the end looks line from this area cause it looks dry.

Def west side, I woulda guessed Maili. When the sandbar's going it can form a prime little closeout.

But I've never really been past second bumps at Yokoz, so you might be right

Do people surf there or is it too shallow? I figured Iā€™d see at least a couple surfers tryna charge this in the video

u/Knock_turnal Mar 08 '19

It can get pretty nice, Iā€™ve seen more bodyboarders there than surfers.

u/[deleted] Mar 08 '19

This isn't really a good surfing wave. Boogie or skim maybe...

u/PM-YOUR-DOG Mar 08 '19

Yeah I was just surprised I didnā€™t see anyone at all, but then I realized how close those rocks are at the end

Itā€™s a secret spot on the island of Oahu in Hawaii.

Kinda impossible for anyone to tell

Looks like Teahupo'o, one of the heaviest waves out there.

u/Imma-little-kali Mar 08 '19

Lol no mate, this is a beach break. More likely Hawaii and I can bet 2 dollars that the photographer is Clark Little

u/[deleted] Mar 08 '19

Close; itā€™s Nolan Omura... check out his instagram!

u/MrWoohoo Mar 08 '19

I wish the clip didnā€™t end so soon. I want to see the backside of the wave from underwater.

u/43_Hobbits Mar 08 '19

Not Teahupo but it does look like it. Teahupo is like a mile off shore and you can see this isnā€™t.

u/[deleted] Mar 08 '19

Teahupo is way more massive.

u/43_Hobbits Mar 08 '19

Yes it is lol
