Surf Zone Forecast for Hawaii
National Weather Service Honolulu HI
340 AM HST Thu Nov 13 2025

.DISCUSSION...
The current short period northeasterly (030 to 050 degree) swell
will gradually decline today through Friday. The High Surf
Advisory (HSA) remains in effect through this afternoon. Offshore
buoy 51000 is still showing plenty of energy that may likely keep
surf elevated along east facing shores through tonight but
holding off extending HSA at this time and will continue to
monitor all available data and make a determination later today.
Rough, choppy east shore surf will continue to gradually decline
through the weekend as local and upstream trade winds speeds ease.
Meanwhile, a small to moderate long period northwest swell that
peaked last night will gradually decline today. Another small,
long period, northwest swell will fill in over the weekend which
should provide a small uptick in surf along north and west facing
shores.

A small, long period, south swell that peaked yesterday will
slowly fade today and Friday. Small background south and
southwest swells will fill in over the weekend keeping surf along
south from going flat.

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.
