Oahu Water Ski Club

About

Oahu Water Ski Club, Inc. was founded in 1961 by a group of water-skiers who wanted to promote the sport and have fun together.

The Club site is located on the Island of Oahu and adjacent to the Honolulu International Airport (HNL) inside Ke’ehi Lagoon. The actual Club house is located on a strip island called the Berm, and is directly across from the Ke’ehi Lagoon State Boat Harbor launch ramps.

The Club site has been used for competitive water-ski events since the early 1960’s with many national and regional competitors calling the Berm home. The ski site is equipped to host slalom, tricks, wakeboard, and jumping competitions with a sub-buoy slalom ski course and judges towers. The Club maintains boat docks and a Club house on the Berm for the use of Club members only. You will need a boat to access the facility, as the site is surrounded by water.

Water conditions vary throughout the year, mostly dependent on the wind direction. The northeast trade winds create a cross-wind which keeps the water calm along the leeward side of the Berm. If the wind is from the south or west, the site is unprotected.
