Big Island Surf Forecast
Hilo side: Surf heights are expected to be knee/waist/chest high at the best breaks open to the swell.
Kona side: Wave heights are expected to be knee/thigh high today. Many spots will be flat.
South: Wave heights are expected to be knee/thigh high today. Many spots will be flat.
Our current south-southwest swell continues to fade and no storm activity is forecast for the near term. Will keep an eye on it.
Trade swell will keep knee/chest high waves at the best exposures on the Hilo side.
There isn’t anything on the radar out of the North Pacific.
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.
