Apr 16, 2024: Beautiful Sunset over the Pacific Ocean in Hawaii

Experience the first-ever 4K livestream from the North Shore of Oahu, Hawaii. You can experience this view in person by staying at the North Shore Waimea Bay oceanfront home: https://www.booking.com/Share-K6HjbK and cottage: https://www.booking.com/Share-2pAQQf. Mention you're an AfarTV subscriber and get a 10% discount on your stay! This view overlooks the mouth of iconic Waimea Bay, the site of the famous big wave surfing competition: the Eddie Aikau. The period spanning from November to February stands out as the optimal window for witnessing large waves. During these months, the waves can reach staggering heights, occasionally exceeding thirty feet, posing a significant risk even for seasoned surfers. It's crucial to always pay attention to warning signs. In contrast, from May to September, the waves mellow out, cultivating a more serene environment suitable for surfing and swimming. Visible from this camera is The Waiʻanae mountain range on the west side, which separates Central Oʻahu from the Leeward Coast and is the oldest part of Oʻahu at roughly four million years old. The tallest point of Oahu is Mt Ka'ala at 4,025 feet (1,227 meters). In the evening this camera captures the beautiful sunsets off Ka'ena Point, the westernmost tip of Oahu. The waters off this coastline are part of the Hawaiian Humpback Whale Marine Sanctuary as well as the Pūpūkea Marine Life Conservation District. Although not as densely populated as West Maui (https://afar.tv/streams/maui/), humpback whales can often be seen between November and April. Other marine life include spinner dolphins, sea turtles, and the occasional endangered Hawaiian Monk Seal. The researchers at the Hawaiian Islands Humpback Whale Marine Sanctuary at NOAA have asked for your help in spotting Humpback Whales. Specifically, they want our viewers to report anything unusual with the Humpbacks such as vessel strikes, entanglements, etc. If you spot a humpback and more importantly see one in distress, please make note of the day and time (time on the bottom left of the video) and email the details to whalesighting@mauisands.com. We will forward your report right away to the Maui Island coordinator at NOAA. If you spot any other marine creatures such as Hawaiian Monk Seals, Spinner Dolphins, or Sea Turtles (Green or Hawksbill) you are encouraged to report it in the live chat. ------------- More about the Eddie Aikau Big Wave Surfing Competition: The Eddie holds a preeminent status within the realm of surfing, akin to the Super Bowl of the sport. The Eddie Big Wave Invitational pays homage to both the contemporary generation of big-wave surfers and their predecessors. The saga of Eddie Aikau holds significant cultural importance in Hawaii. Eddie Aikau was not only a championship athlete but also a waterman and a dedicated family man known for his genuine concern for others. Notably, he served as the first lifeguard at Waimea Bay and was the inaugural lifeguard for the entire North Shore, where he courageously rescued over 500 people throughout his career. Eddie fearlessly ventured into waves that often exceeded 30 feet when no one else dared. Preserving his legacy is of utmost importance, as it serves to inspire the forthcoming generation to live in the spirit of Eddie. Bottom Stats Bar: Wave height, direction, period, and water temperature data are from NOAA buoy 51201 which is located about 4 miles offshore from this camera. Actual wave height at the shoreline will be different (usually higher) due to the topography of the sea bottom. Refer to the "Surf Forecast" information in the stats bar for wave heights for surfing. Marine weather forecast from the NOAA is for windward (NE) shorelines of Oahu Some information from Wikipedia, NOAA.
