Surf Zone Forecast for Hawaii
National Weather Service Honolulu HI
308 AM HST Sat Aug 30 2025

.DISCUSSION...
Surf along south facing shores will remain near summer average today
as reinforcing energy from the south have filled in overnight. Surf
is expected to steadily decline Sunday into Monday. Surf heights will
return to background levels by early next week along south facing
shores.

Surf along north facing shores will see a small, short period
swell expected to arrive late this weekend. This swell will be
overshadowed by longer period energy out of the northwest starting
Monday night of next week. This swell should peak on Tuesday and
could produce surf heights near the September average of 4 to 6
feet. This should send another reinforcing pulse out of the north
around the same time the northwest swell arrives. A mix of north and
northwest swells are expected next Tuesday through Thursday.

Below average surf is expected to continue along east facing
shores due to gentle to moderate trade winds persisting through
early 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.
