Hawaii Surf 1

Surf along north facing shores will be 5 to 7 feet, lowering 3 to 5 feet Thursday.

Surf along east facing shores will be 1 to 3 feet through Thursday.

Surf along south facing shores will be 5 to 7 feet, lowering to 3 to 5 feet Thursday.

Surf along west facing shores will be 2 to 5 feet, lowering to 1 to 3 feet Thursday.

Outlook through Tuesday Jun 9: the long period south swell will slowly diminish but two more south swells will again produce surf near the 8 foot advisory threshold on south facing shores. The first swell will arrive late Sunday and the next one on Tuesday.

Surf heights are forecast heights of the face or front of waves. The surf forecast is based on the significant wave height in the zone of maximum refraction. Some waves may be more than twice as high as the significant wave height. Expect to encounter rip currents in or near any surf zone.
