Surf Zone Forecast for Hawaii
National Weather Service Honolulu HI
300 AM HST Sun May 31 2026

.DISCUSSION...
The current long-period south swell will hold at advisory levels
today, then gradually lower tonight and Monday as forerunners from a
new long-period south swell begin to arrive. Surf is expected to
briefly dip below advisory levels tonight and Monday, but will likely
return to advisory levels Tuesday through Thursday, potentially
peaking close to warning levels on Wednesday.

Surf along north-facing shores will remain small through Monday, then
trend slightly higher Tuesday through Friday as a pair of overlapping
small north-northwest swells move through. North shore surf will drop
back to nearly flat levels next weekend.

East shore surf will remain well below normal through Tuesday due to
lack of trade winds over and upstream of the state. Surf will trend
upward Wednesday and Thursday and hold close to seasonal levels Friday
through next weekend.

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.
