Surf Zone Forecast for Hawaii
National Weather Service Honolulu HI
308 PM HST Tue Aug 19 2025

.DISCUSSION...
A series of small, medium period south (170-190 degree) swells
are expected throughout the week with surf around the summer average
expected late Wednesday through around Saturday. Surf heights should
decrease Sunday into early next week as these swells fade. Choppy
conditions will continue for east-facing shores through the forecast
period due to the persistent fresh trades. Surf along north facing
shores will remain nearly flat through the forecast period.

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.
