Surf Zone Forecast for Hawaii
National Weather Service Honolulu HI
300 PM HST Tue Oct 14 2025

.DISCUSSION...Moderate to long period NW (310-320) swell brought an early
morning peak to N and W facing shores as indicated by the PacIOOS
Buoy at Waimea Bay where observations hovered near the High Surf
Advisory (HSA) threshold for much of the day. During the last few
hours, energy has begun to consolidate in the lower energy bands
even as the observed significant wave height remains rather
steady. As such, the HSA will be expired this afternoon. Small,
medium period S swell continues through the week with minor longer
period pulses arriving tonight and Saturday. E shores remain small
throught he near term, but will see increasing short period action as
trades strengthen mid-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.
