Surf Zone Forecast for Hawaii

332 AM HST Wed Jan 22 2025

.DISCUSSION...
A new moderate long period northwest swell will build through the
day and peak surf heights look to be just under High Surf Advisory
heights along exposed N and W facing shores this evening. High surf
is expected Thursday and Friday along N facing shores as mixed-period
NNW-N swell increases, leading to jumbled surf as it overlaps with the
diminishing longer period NW swell. This swell will slowly decline
into next weekend. A short-period NE swell will peak today and
diminish Thursday. A new NW swell is possible next Monday, otherwise
no other significant swells are expected.

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.
