South shores – The south swell waves continuing…although gradually becoming smaller Friday into the weekend.
West shores – The nice south swell waves will continue breaking on most of these beaches, tapering off into the weekend. An unusually late season west-northwest swell will keep things going…although dropping into the weekend as well.
East shores – Still a bit of south swell wrap breaking locally…although generally small. Easterly swell gaining some size during the weekend.
North shores – The hefty out of season WNW swell will keep waves breaking, gradually subsiding Friday…into the weekend.
Note: Wave face sizes are approximately twice the surf forecast numbers indicated in the tables above.

I want to thank all of the Hawaii Weather Today surf report team for all those years of reporting on the TV weather show…which is now finished: Ole Olson on Kauai; Kaleo Ohina, Ian Masterson and Kyle Stanford on Oahu; Steven Mark, Mike Napier, Ken Potts and Ron Busby on Maui…and finally David Hume on the Big Island. Thanks to Mr. Pat Caldwell on Oahu for his continuing excellent surf forecast skills. ~~~ Steven Mark and Mike Napier, both continue to send me daily surf reports for Hookipa Beach Park on Maui, and the Kihei area on the south coast here on Maui.
