Surf Zone Forecast for Hawaii
National Weather Service Honolulu HI
351 PM HST Fri Oct 9 2026
.DISCUSSION...
The current moderate, long period south swell will fade gradually
through the weekend, but a long-period reinforcement is set to
arrive on Saturday, then peak Sunday into Monday. This will
maintain elevated surf along south-facing shores, but it will
remain below advisory levels. South-shore surf will decline
slightly by the middle of next week, only to be followed by a new
long period swell Wednesday night or Thursday.
Small to moderate surf is also expected along north and west
facing shores as a medium-period swell produced by low pressure to
the northwest of the islands peaks this evening and tonight and
then declines through the weekend. A smaller long period northwest
swell is also forecast to move through the islands this weekend
and fade by the beginning of next week. A swell similar to, or
slightly larger than, the current one will arrive on Monday and
peak Tuesday, boosting north shore surf again but staying below
advisory levels. Surf along east facing shores will remain small
as local winds remain fairly weak with only slight variations each
day.
