Surf Zone Forecast for Hawaii
National Weather Service Honolulu HI
322 PM HST Tue May 13 2025

.DISCUSSION...
The current moderate period south-southwest swell will slowly
decline through Wednesday. Expect mainly background energy
along south facing shores by Thursday. A tiny long-period
south-southwest swell is possible this weekend. Otherwise
expect mainly background energy through the middle of next
week.

Surf along east facing shores will remain rough and choppy the
next several days due to the fresh to locally strong trades.
Surf along north facing shores will remain small with some
background northwest energy moving in throughout the week and
into the weekend.

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.
