Hawaii Surf Report/Forecast
June 18-19, 2026
Forecast: A series of southern hemisphere swells will continue to move through the area during the next week, though much smaller than the recent large event. The current south swell will remain on a very slow decline. A new overlapping south-southwest swell will arrive and produce surf near the High Surf Advisory threshold Thursday. This swell will decline Friday, and a series of smaller south-southwest swells will maintain surf near seasonal average this weekend into early next week. Small surf will prevail on north and east shores through most of the coming week. A slight increase in east shore surf is expected around next Tuesday or Wednesday as trade winds build across the region.
