Surf Zone Forecast for Hawaii
National Weather Service Honolulu HI
300 PM HST Tue Sep 29 2026

.DISCUSSION...The moderate, medium period SW swell originating from
Nolo has eased slightly with the latest observations coming in below
the High Surf Advisory (HSA). The HSA has therefore been allowed to
expire. Surf along E shores has declined in response to emerging SE
flow. Surf will remain small until moderate trades return early next
week providing a modest boost. Multiple rounds of tiny swell
originating out of the northwest quadrant will reach north and select
west facing exposures next week as the storm track in the vicinity of
the Aleutian Islands becomes increasingly active.

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.
