754 AM HST THU APR 30 2026
DISCUSSION
THE CURRENT SMALL, NORTHWEST TO NORTH-NORTHWEST (320-330 DEGREE),
SWELL WILL SLOWLY DECLINE INTO FRIDAY AND PRODUCE SMALL SURF ALONG
NORTH FACING BEACHES. A MODERATE, LONGER- PERIOD NORTHWEST SWELL WILL
AFFECT THE ISLANDS LATE FRIDAY INTO SATURDAY AND GENERATE ABOVE
AVERAGE SURF ALONG NORTH AND WEST FACING SHORES. HOWEVER, SURF HEIGHTS
SHOULD REMAIN BELOW ADVISORY LEVELS.
SURF ALONG SOUTH-FACING SHORES WILL BE SMALL THROUGH THE REST OF THIS
WORK WEEK, WITH MAINLY BACKGROUND SOUTH TO SOUTHWEST SWELL EXPECTED.
A SMALL, LONG PERIOD, SOUTH-SOUTHWEST PULSE SHOULD ARRIVE LATE FRIDAY
AND GIVE A BUMP UP TO SOUTH FACING SHORES THROUGH THIS WEEKEND.
SURF ALONG EAST-FACING SHORES WILL REMAIN SLIGHTLY ELEVATED
THROUGH FRIDAY AS FRESH TO LOCALLY STRONG TRADES PERSIST. TRADES WILL
SLOWLY WEAKEN THIS WEEKEND AND ALLOW SURF ALONG EAST-FACING SHORES TO
LOWER.
