Oahu Surf Zone Forecast FZHW52 PHFO 270156 SRFHFO Surf Zone Forecast for Hawaii National Weather Service Honolulu HI 356 PM HST Fri Jul 26 2024 .DISCUSSION...Near shore buoys continue to indicate a small, medium to long period south swell, which will provide small surf for south facing shores through Saturday. By mid to late next week, another small long period, south southwest swell should bring a slight bump up in surf along the south facing shores. The enhanced trades will continue to produce rough and choppy surf for the east-facing shores through this weekend. Local wind swell may wrap into select north and south facing shores. Surf along north facing shores will remain nearly flat, typical of this time of year.

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.
