Hawaii Surf Report/Forecast
July 27-28, 2024
Forecast: Near shore buoys continue to indicate a small, medium to long period south swell, which will provide small surf for south facing shores through Saturday. By mid to late
next week, another small long period, south-southwest swell should bring a slight bump up in surf along the south facing shores.
The enhanced trades will continue to produce rough and choppy surf for the east-facing shores through this weekend. Local wind swell may wrap into select north and south facing shores. Surf along north facing shores will remain nearly flat, typical of this time of year.
