If you plan to attend the contest at Waimea Bay, get there early and expect slow moving traffic.

McNamara said spectators who are planning to watch the event in-person should aim to arrive early and to be safe with the high surf.

The Eddie has only run 10 times in the last 40 years, and participation is by invitation only.

The contest was last held in January 2023. City lifeguard Luke Shepardson etched his name into the history books after beating out the world’s best big-wave surfers.
