Hawaii Surf Report/Forecast

July 9-10, 2026
Forecast: The south-southwest swell currently producing near-average surf will gradually fade through the remainder of the week. A small to moderate, long-period southwest Tasman Sea swell is expected to fill in Saturday into early
next week. Surf along east facing shores will remain rough and choppy through the week, as fresh to strong trades hold. A series of small, moderate- to long-period west swells are expected to arrive this weekend and linger into early
next week, sourced from Typhoon Bavi. No significant swells are expected out of the north or northwest.
