Hale'iwa Surf Museum in Hawaii

Hale’iwa Surf Museum
“Hanging Ten” in the North Shore Marketplace, the Hale’iwa Surf Museum is dedicated to the pastime of surfing, its history and its impact on world culture. Officially named the North Shore Surf and Cultural Museum, this charming shrine to surfing and surfing culture is curated by a lively storyteller named Hurricane Bob. Much of the focus of this museum lies on the surfing history and culture of the North Shore. While the North Shore is incredibly famous and a surfing mecca for sport enthusiasts, it is most interesting to hear stories of how Hale’iwa and the North Shore beaches did not eclipse the popular western beach at Mahaka until the 1960s.

The collection of surfboards alone is incredible, from antiques to modern pieces, from the first motorized surfboard to the ancient-looking hollowed wooden boards. The museum abounds with surfing-related memorabilia, from surfing records to collectible bottles, from numerous surfing photos and videos to competition posters for North Shore surfing contests.

Directions
Driving from Waikiki, take the H1 highway west to the H2 highway north. Take the Wahiawa exit (exit number 5), and pass through Wahiawa straight on to the Kamehameha Highway. Turn left at Haleiwa. Take a right to enter the North Shore Marketplace. The North Shore Surf and Cultural Museum is located in the back left area of the shopping center. Parking is plentiful in the marketplace parking lot. Admission to the surf museum is free, and the museum is open most afternoons. Contact the museum for any additional questions at 808.637.8888.
