Surf Zone Forecast for Hawaii
National Weather Service Honolulu HI
315 PM HST Sun Sep 28 2025

.DISCUSSION...
A small medium-period northwest swell will continue to fade
tonight. A series of small medium-period swells from the north
and northwest will trickle in through the middle of the week. A
moderate long-period northwest (330 deg) swell will overlap with
a smaller medium-period north swell by Saturday resulting in
building surf along north facing shores this upcoming weekend.

Surf along south facing shores will start to subside tonight into
Monday as energy fades from a small medium-period south swell. A
series of small medium-period south swells will keep surf along
south facing shores from going flat through the week.

Surf along east facing shores will remain on the small side as
trade winds return.

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.
