Big Island Surf Forecast
Hilo side: Surf heights are expected to be around double overhead today.
Kona side: Surf heights are expected to be around double overhead for the breaks catching the northwest. Breaks catching the southwest swell are forecast to get up to waist/shoulder high.
South: Surf heights are expected to be up to waist/shoulder high.
A northwest reinforcement is expected to fill in Wednesday with a larger northwest forecast for Friday.
A fun south-southwest is expected to keep waves waist/chest/shoulder high through the middle of the week before slowly fading Thursday and into the weekend.
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.
