Surf Zone Forecast for Hawaii
National Weather Service Honolulu HI
352 PM HST Sat Dec 6 2025

.DISCUSSION...
The current medium period north-northwest (340-350 degree) swell
continues to slowly decline this afternoon. Buoy observations and
swell model guidance trends agree that this north-northwest swell
energy will gradually fade into Monday, bringing surf back down
to below average levels for this time of year. The next two long
to medium period overlapping northwest (310-320 degree) swell
pulses will arrive on Monday and Tuesday, boosting surf along
north and west facing shores and possibly reaching marginal
advisory levels by Wednesday.

Choppy east shore surf will remain small and decline this weekend
as trades gradually ease. Expect minimal background energy for
south facing shores through the next few days, despite a slight
bump from the Tasman Sea this weekend.

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.
