Hawaii Surf Report/Forecast
July 2-3, 2026
Forecast: A small, medium-period south swell will linger through Thursday, just below the summertime average. This fading swell combined with a series of small, medium- to long- period south-southwesterly swells, will deliver below-average surf along south- facing shores through Friday. Over the holiday weekend and into early next week, a moderate, long- period south-southwest swell will arrive, boosting surf heights to near High Surf Advisory levels potentially Sunday into Monday. Surf along east facing shores will remain rough and choppy through Thursday, as trade winds remain locally strong. Surf along north facing shores will remain flat to tiny through the forecast period, with a minor increase possible Friday into the holiday weekend as a small, medium-period northwest swell arrives.
