Surf Zone Forecast for Hawaii
National Weather Service Honolulu HI
302 AM HST Sat May 24 2025

.DISCUSSION...
A small long period south-southwest swell has begun to fill in
overnight and will peak today before gradually declining through early
next week. A similarly-sized long- period south- southwest swell is
expected to arrive next Wednesday into Thursday, bringing another
boost to south shore surf.

East shore surf will remain near seasonal average through the weekend
as trade winds persist, then gradually decline into midweek as the
trades weaken slightly. Surf along north facing shores will
remain tiny through early next week. Guidance suggest the north
Pacific getting active over the weekend, which will result in an
uptick to the surf as a small medium period north -northwest swell
is expected during the later half of 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.
