Surf Zone Forecast for Hawaii
National Weather Service Honolulu HI
312 PM HST Sat Aug 8 2026
.DISCUSSION...
Continued small overlapping south-southwest swells will produce
south shore surf near August average this weekend and near to
above average Monday and Tuesday. A larger swell will arrive
Tuesday night and may push surf to the High Surf Advisory level
late Wednesday through Friday. This swell should slowly decrease
next weekend.
Along east-facing shores, short-period trade wind swell will
generate surf just below August average through Thursday.
Depending on how potential tropical cyclone development plays out
southeast of the islands, an increase in southeast swell is
possible Friday and next weekend. Aside from wrapping trade wind
energy, surf along north-facing shores will remain flat to tiny
through the week.

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.
