Surf Zone Forecast for Hawaii
National Weather Service Honolulu HI
344 PM HST Sun May 12 2024

.DISCUSSION...
Surf along south facing shores will slowly decline into Monday.
However, by Monday night another series of overlapping, long-
period south swells will begin moving into the islands. An
additional reinforcing south swell will arrive on Wednesday,
giving another noticeable boost to south shore surf through the
rest of the week.

A small, long-period northwest swell will build tonight, peak on
Monday, and then slowly decline Tuesday, giving north shore surf a
boost for the next couple of days. A series of small reinforcing
northwest swells will keep some small surf moving into north facing
shores Wednesday into the weekend.

Surf along east facing shores will remain well below normal
levels through late this 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.
