A high surf advisory is in effect for the south-facing shores of all Hawaiian Islands through Thursday, June 4, until 6 a.m.
According to the National Weather Service, a series of long-period south-southwest swells that began building Monday and Tuesday will bring large surf to south-facing shores from Tuesday, June 2, through at least Wednesday night.
Surf is expected to rise to 8-12 feet.
Strong breaking waves and currents are expected, which will make swimming dangerous.
Beachgoers, swimmers, and surfers should heed all advice given by ocean safety officials and exercise caution. Boaters should expect recreational surfers and body boarders utilizing harbor channels to access surfing areas.
