304 PM HST Tue Aug 12 2025
.DISCUSSION...The current south swell will continue to gradually
decline through the middle of the week. A small long-period south
swell is expected to fill in by Saturday to bring surf heights back up
for the weekend, though likely remaining below advisory level. Surf
along east facing shores will see a slight uptick through Wednesday,
before declining slightly Thursday and Friday. Short period chop
increases this weekend again as stronger trades develop. Surf along
north facing shores will remain tiny through the forecast period.

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.
