Oahu Surf Zone Forecast FZHW52 PHFO 260157 SRFHFO Surf Zone Forecast for Hawaii National Weather Service Honolulu HI 357 PM HST Sat Mar 25 2023 .DISCUSSION... A small northwest swell is expected to arrive Sunday afternoon and will bring a boost in surf heights along north and west facing shores through Monday. This swell will slowly decline Monday and dissipate by Wednesday. A series of smaller northwest and northeast swells is expected during the second half of next week. Surf along east-facing shores should see a minor boost on Sunday as trades strengthen over and upstream of the islands. Although trades will weaken locally next week, moderate trade winds upstream of the state should provide some small surf along east facing shores next week. Surf along south facing shores will remain small with no significant swells on the horizon. A small boost is expected from the southwest around Tuesday or Wednesday, otherwise only background swells from the south and southeast is expected through next week.

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.
