Big Island Surf Forecast

Hilo side: Wave heights from waist to shoulder high are expected.

Kona side: Wave heights from knee to waist high are expected.

South: Wave heights of knee to waist high are expected.

Our current shadowed west-northwest swell fades out further Friday. Short-period northwest shifting swell brings a reinforcement late Friday, holding Saturday before fading out Sunday.

A northwest swell is expected for first few days of March, peaking late Monday.

Our current south swell is expected to slowly fade through the weekend. Another round is expected for the first week of March but will be inconsistent.

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.
