Swell Summary

South shore surf will remain small today before a moderate south to south-southwest swell is expected to slowly fill in Monday, peak late Monday night into Wednesday, then slowly decline through rest of the week.

Surf along north and west facing shores will have a small bump today as a small northwest swell generated by former Tropical Cyclone Damrey continues to fill in. Nearshore PacIOOS buoys at Hanalei and Waimea have shown signs of the swell filling in this morning. The swell is expected to gradually shift out of the north- northwest late Monday as it fades out through Tuesday.
