Surf Zone Forecast for Hawaii
National Weather Service Honolulu HI
319 PM HST Fri Aug 8 2025

.DISCUSSION...
Elevated surf heights can be observed today across the south
facing shores. This is from a swell that arrived earlier today
and will continue supporting advisory level surf before another
reinforcing pulse arrives tonight into tomorrow. Surf heights are
expected to border on warning levels later tonight and hold
through tomorrow. A High Surf Advisory for all south-facing shores
is in effect through Sunday night and could be upgraded to a
warning if the swell comes in larger. The swell will gradually fade
through next week.

Surf for east facing shores should remain choppy tonight and
should decrease slightly tomorrow as trade winds decrease. A
medium period east swell from Tropical Storm Henriette may arrive
around Sunday and briefly increase the east facing shores.

A small, medium northwest swell passing through today and tomorrow
will keep north shore surf from going completely flat. Another
tiny northwest swell is expected to arrive by Monday.

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.
