Surf Zone Forecast for Hawaii
National Weather Service Honolulu HI
841 AM HST Wed May 6 2026
.DISCUSSION...
A northwest swell will continue to fade through the rest of today. A
new long period northwest swell is forecast to build tonight and give
a boost to surf along north and west facing shores Thursday into
Friday. Surf heights should remain slightly below advisory levels.
This swell will gradually decline over the weekend into early next
week.
A small, long-period south swell will fill in today and likely
provide a small bump in south shore surf through the end of the week.
Surf along east facing shores will remain below normal during the
next several days due to the lack of strong trades over and
upstream of the islands. Surf along east facing shores will get a
small bump up into the weekend as trades gradually increase.
