Surf Zone Forecast for Hawaii
National Weather Service Honolulu HI
349 AM HST Fri Oct 30 2026

.DISCUSSION...
A small, short period north-northeast swell will fill in today and
maintain small surf along north-facing shores. A larger, long-
period northwest swell will begin to arrive late Saturday, pushing
north and exposed west shore surf above the High Surf Advisory
threshold Sunday into Monday. The swell will shift slightly more
northerly and may briefly build further on Monday before dropping
Tuesday.

A small, medium period south swell will peak today, then gradually
decline through the weekend. During the first half of next week, south
shore surf will return to below seasonal averages.

Surf along most east-facing shores will rise slightly today due to
wrap from the north and southerly swells. Additionally, east-
facing shorelines exposed to the larger north swell Sunday night
into Monday will have the potential for advisory level surf during
that time.

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.
