A very large northwest swell is expected to bring advisory-level surf to the Big Island’s Kona and Kohala coasts through Saturday, National Weather Service forecasters say.
Surf heights of 6 to 10 feet are expected along west-facing shores of the coasts through 6 p.m. Saturday, forecasters said.
Forecasters categorized the surf’s impact as “moderate,” cautioning of strong breaking waves, shore break and longshore and rip currents. Beachgoers, swimmers and surfers should heed all advice given by ocean safety officials.
