Hawaii Surf Report/Forecast

June 14-15, 2026
Forecast: A long-period south southwest (200 degree) swell will build and peak Sunday night into Monday, before gradually declining through the rest of the week. Near shore buoys, including Lanai and Barber`s Point, show wave heights increasing with a dominant 22 second period. Expect the swell to continue to fill in Sunday morning. Surf heights will increase along exposed south and west facing shores, with surf heights reaching advisory levels. A High Surf Advisory has been issued and continuing through Monday night. Surf could also reach warning levels Sunday night into Monday (advisory along west facing shores), but confidence is a bit lower over 24 hours out from the forecast peak. South shore surf will remain elevated through much of next week, due to the slow decline of this large south swell, and a series of continued overlapping southerly swells.
Very little swell energy is arriving along north shores, keeping surf tiny to flat. A small bump in surf is possible for north- facing shores early in the new week, with the arrival of a small northwest swell and a smaller north swell. Gentle to moderate east-northeasterly winds expected through the week, as a weak front is held up to the north and west of Hawaii. Surf along east facing shores will remain small as a result.
