Big Island Surf Forecast
Hilo side: Surf heights are expected to be knee/shoulder high at the best breaks open to the swell.
Kona side: Wave heights are expected to be waist/head high today.
South: Wave heights are expected to be waist/head high today.
Our current south-southwest swell begins to ease Friday. Still, it will keep surf in the “fun” range through the weekend. Another couple swells are on the horizon around June 29 and July 3.
Nothing much is expected out of the North Pacific at this time.
Trade swell will be decreasing as winds decrease.
Keep in mind, surf heights are measured on the face of the wave from trough to crest. Heights vary from beach to beach, and at the same beach, from break to break.
