Our current northwest swell is forecast to peak Wednesday. This swell is not expected to be quite as big as our Christmas swell. The Kona side will be shadowed.

A trade wind swell will also continue showing today.

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.
