Big Island Surf Forecast
Hilo side: Wave heights for spots exposed to the swell are expected to be head high or more today. Smaller for spots without direct exposure to the swell.
Kona side: Wave heights are expected to be knee/thigh high today.
South: Wave heights are expected to be waist high or less today. Spots with exposure to the wind generated waves could be bigger.
A solid northwest swell is expected to filter in Sunday into Monday. The Big Island will again be heavily shadowed from this swell. This surf energy is expected to top out late Sunday around chest high on the sets.
Not much expected out of the SPAC anytime soon. Minimal southerly swells will trickle in over the next several days. There is the possibility of a little something around April 18th or so.
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.
