Climb Spot #1: Mokule'ia Wall (Top rope, Sport climb)
Although Hawaii offers only a few cliffs for climbing, the best climb on the Island of Oahu is the Mokule'ia wall on the North Shore. This 85 foot cliff attracts dozens of climbers on weekends; fewer on weekdays. The wall is considered the most popular and developed climbing spot in the state. It offers nearly 50 bolted routes. The 85-foot wall offers challenging climbs and the strings that run from the summit to the ground allow climbers to "top-rope" the wall without having to lead climb and set anchors themselves. A 30 minute hike to the bottom of the wall is easy but steep at times, but plan your day accordingly because the descend can be difficult in the dark. Do not leave valuables in your car this is a fairly remote area and break-ins can occur. It's a good idea to bring a longsleeve shirt due to sudden weather changes in wind and rain. Climb Spot #2: Waimea Bay (Bouldering)
This easy but challenging 35 foot boulder climb is located on the left side of the famous Hawaiian surf beach, Waimea Bay. This climb spot is located directly on the beach and so your launching pad will be the beatiful hawaiian sand. Parking at Waimea beach park is limited and beachgoers often like to use the base of the boulder for shade, it is recommended that you arrive early or later in the day as mid-day is crowded 7 days a week. Rock climbing in Hawaii, however, shouldn't be done without some basic training. It is recommended that you take a climbing class and go with someone who knows what they are doing. *Do not depend on the information on this site for personal safety.
