Maui is well known to be the paradise for windsurfing and kitesurfing - due to the everyday presence of the wind, 20 knots trades getting pumped through the venturi "tunnel" that join the two volcanos of the island, the Kahului-Kihei axis.
However, there is some good surf too. It is more difficult to catch, you may have to drive more, and wait more. But when it is good, well, it is good.
Thanks to John, my surf buddy, immobilized by a stupid fall on a longboard-skateboard, we got some pretty cool pictures of the surf I never care to try to chase, on the other spots of the island, last winter.
