Surf Zone Forecast for Hawaii
National Weather Service Honolulu HI
322 PM HST Sat Feb 22 2025

.DISCUSSION...The current west-northwest swell will hold through this
evening before a long-period reinforcement builds in tonight through
Sunday. Surf heights are expected to reach advisory levels after
midnight tonight and peak Sunday afternoon along north and west facing
shores. A High Surf Advisory (HSA) has been issued for north and west
facing shores of Niihau, Kauai, Oahu, Molokai and north facing shores
of Maui through Sunday night. If this swell comes in larger than
expected, may need to add west facing shores of the Big Island to the
HSA. This swell will slowly lower through the first part of next week.
A slightly larger northwest swell is expected to build in late Tuesday
and linger through Wednesday, resulting in peak surf heights near-
warning level for north and west facing shores. Small surf is expected
along south and east facing shores.

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.
