Surf Zone Forecast for Hawaii
National Weather Service Honolulu HI
314 PM HST Sat Aug 29 2026

.DISCUSSION...The S swell that peaked just below the advisory
threshold on Friday declines over the next few days. A long period S
swell brings increasing surf to S and exposed W shores beginning
Tuesday and peaking on Wednesday near the High Surf Advisory
threshold. Surf along E shores remains choppy due to trades over and
upstream of the islands. A small medium period east swell from
Tropical Storm Iselle has filled in and will diminish during the next
24 hours.

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.
