The Lowdown

Alright, listen up. For the next 16 days, it’s gonna be a tough one for the paddle crew. The surf window is pretty much closed for a while.

We’re startin’ off with a bit of a flat spell, honestly. The only spot that’s even close to bein’ worth a look is Honolii Beach Park. This is a river mouth, a beginner’s wave, but it’s a fickle one.

Let’s get into it. The first few days of the month are a waste. The wind is blowin’ right onshore, and the swell is short and weak. The energy is moderate, around 750 to 790 (moderate wave energy) on the 31st of July, but it’s all messy.

By Saturday the 1st of August, the swell pumps up to 7ft, but it’s from the ENE with a short 8-second period and the wind is still cross-onshore. That’s gonna be a choppy, bumpy mess. The energy hits 918 (moderate wave energy), but it’s more of a kiteboarding situation than a paddle surf day.

The whole first week stays rough. The swell hangs around 5ft to 6ft, but the period is short, and the wind won’t clean up. The energy stays in the 400 to 700 range (moderate wave energy), but it’s all poor surf conditions. The water temp is about average for the time of year.

We get a little window on Tuesday the 4th of August. The swell drops to 5ft, but the period stretches to 11 seconds, which is a proper groundswell. The wind goes cross-shore, which is a big improvement. The energy is 508 (moderate wave energy). This is the best we’re gonna get. The swell direction is a touch off the river’s optimum, but it’ll wrap in. Expect a few crowds here.

After that, it’s a long, slow decline. The swell shrinks down to 3ft or less by the second week, the period drops back to 7 seconds, and the wave energy plummets to just 55 to 168 (weak wave energy). The wind is all over the place, with some risk of thunderstorms. For the 7th of August through to the 15th of August, it’s just flat and poor. There’s a solid 7-day gap with no real surf to speak of.

So, the only real shot is Tuesday the 4th of August at Honolii Beach Park. It’s a clean cross-shore wind and a long-period groundswell. The rest of the month is a write-off. Keep an eye on the charts, but as it stands, it’s a quiet one.

Information about the Honolii Beach Park Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for Honolii Beach Park provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Honolii Beach Park can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Honolii Beach Park surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Honolii Beach Park) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).

Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Honolii Beach Park may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
