Not to worry, first-timers wont be left out as there are surf spots that are especially suited for those just starting out. If youre a beginner or intermediate-level surfer, check out Pine Trees Beach north of Kona Airport and Kahaluu Beach in Keauhou and Banyans in Historic Kailua VIllage.

The best months to visit are November and March, when huge swells roll into the north and west coastlines.
