Surf Zone Forecast for Hawaii
National Weather Service Honolulu HI
312 AM HST Sat Apr 5 2025

.DISCUSSION...
Surf is expected to rise this afternoon as a large, long-period
north-northwest swell (340-360 degrees) arrives. This swell will push
surf to warning levels along north and exposed east-facing shores,
with advisory-level surf likely for exposed west-facing shores through
Sunday. This swell will peak tonight into Sunday, then steadily ease
through the first half of the week. Small surf will prevail along
south facing shores through early Sunday. Small pulses of south swell
are possible late Sunday and Monday and again midweek.

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.
