Surf Zone Forecast for Hawaii
National Weather Service Honolulu HI
801 AM HST Sun Nov 8 2026
.DISCUSSION...
The forecast remains on track for today.
A medium period swell out of the north-northwest (325 to 350
degree) will hold through much of the day. This swell will
gradually decrease from tonight into Monday before another small
to moderate swell fills in Monday night, keeping small to moderate
surf in place through Tuesday. A large northwest to north-
northwest swell is then forecast to arrive late Wednesday into
Thursday and could bring surf near or right at warning levels.
A small south-southwest swell will keep surf around the average
today before declining Monday through the remainder of the week.
Rough surf along east-facing shores will hold at or above seasonal
average through this weekend. Surf will decrease slightly by
early next week as trades begin to ease before increasing again by
Wednesday.

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.
