Surf Zone Forecast for Hawaii
National Weather Service Honolulu HI
359 PM HST Sat Nov 8 2025

.DISCUSSION...
A moderate, short-medium period, north-northwest to north swell
will arrive this evening and will produce elevated surf along
north facing shores through Sunday. We are expecting a little bit
more energy to fill in tonight, which should translate to near
borderline advisory level surf along north facing shores for late
tonight into Sunday morning.

A larger moderate period north to north- northeast (010-030
degree) swell will fill in Sunday night into Monday which should
exceed advisory thresholds along north and east facing shores.
Also due to the northerly direction areas such as west Maui will
also see elevated surf as well as some of the exposed areas of
west Big Island near Kua Bay. Another reinforcing northeast swell
is expected towards the middle of next week, as well as a smaller
long-period northwest swell.

A small, long period, south-southwest swell will keep surf
heights near seasonal averages along south facing shores through
Sunday. A pair of south to south-southwest swells should bring above
average surf throughout the first half of next week.

Product Legend:

Surf:        Height of the surf from trough to crest (face value)
             in feet.

Tides:       Heights displayed are relative to the Mean Lower Low
             Water (MLLW) datum in feet.

Surf heights can vary significantly from beach to beach along a
coastline. Surf larger than the upper end of the range provided in
the forecast will occur periodically, sometimes up to a few hours
apart. Expect to encounter rip currents in or near the surf zone,
with rip current strength increasing with surf size. Swimmers are
urged to exercise caution at all times and enter the water near a
lifeguard.
