Surf Zone Forecast for Hawaii
National Weather Service Honolulu HI
319 AM HST Tue Apr 16 2024

.DISCUSSION...
Surf along north and west facing shores has filled in overnight
as a mixed- period northwest swell continues to bring elevated surf
to exposed shores. This swell will hold through the day then
gradually diminish as it becomes increasingly north Wednesday.
Otherwise, a combination of southeast and southwest swells will
support small to moderate surf along south facing shores the next
couple of days. Surf along east facing shores will remain very small,
then gradually trend up as the northeast trade winds increase later in
the 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.
