"There is no surf break at this time."
Almost all waves are rideable, even "1-foot slop."
Pohoiki had three distinct breaks before; the small right near the boat entrance is covered by sand, but the other 2 remain, though their quality has been affected. (I heard one surfer assert the left in front of the jetty is better.)
East Hawaii Island surfers will ride whatever they can get, and are well known for riding in dangerous and poor conditions. And some breaks don't even appear until the surf is 8 feet; a complete judgment cannot be passed on a surf site until all conditions have been observed.
Third bay footage from 2015 (just past Pohoiki Bay) once again. Dangerous. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cc1NnZ1z1sM
