WAI KAI HAPPENINGS

From Poverty to the Pros - Sheldon Paishon has carved out his place in Hawai‘i’s surf scene and beyond. Raised on local beaches—not in the luxury homes that line the coast—his journey is a true testament to grit, talent, and perseverance.

Join us for a special night at Wai Kai as we bring together live surf action and cinematic storytelling for an elevated evening experience at The LookOut Food & Drink.

At 7:00pm, experience the energy of the Wai Kai Surf Show on the wave, featuring local pro surfer Sheldon Paishon, showcasing his talent on the Wai Kai Wave.

Following the surf show, continue the night with an exclusive screening of the award-winning documentary “Through the Doggy Door”—winner of Top Documentary at the Hawai‘i International Film Festival. The film will be shown from 8:00pm–9:30pm at The LookOut, offering a powerful and authentic look into Hawai‘i’s surf culture and community.

This special feature is designed to enhance the experience for our restaurant and bar guests. Seating is reserved for patrons actively dining or enjoying beverages, ensuring a comfortable and premium viewing environment.

Reservations are recommended.
Walk-ups and bar seating will be available based on capacity.

Come for the waves, stay for the story—and enjoy a night of stoke, community, and award-winning film at Wai Kai.
