Surf Zone Forecast for Hawaii
National Weather Service Honolulu HI
801 AM HST Fri Mar 6 2026

.DISCUSSION...
Surf along east-facing shores will remain near the seasonal average
into early next week, then ease by midweek. Surf along north- and
west-facing shores will remain relatively small through the period,
with only a few west-northwest pulses expected over the weekend and
into next week. A gradual increase is expected through the weekend,
with Sunday potentially the largest day, reaching around head-high
levels. Surf along south-facing shores exposed to southeast trade-
wind seas will gradually increase through the weekend. Conditions
could become rough early next week as winds veer southerly and
strengthen. A long-period south-southwest swell is expected to arrive
Tuesday and persist through midweek.

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.
