Maui Surf Report for April 24th, 2012

The rough windswell will continue today but it is on the way down. Short-period north to north-northeasterly swell will still add a little bit to the mix to provide our winter shores with waist- to chest-high surf in some areas, and the best locations may still see a few slightly larger sets rolling through if [...]

 

Maui Surf Report for April 23rd, 2012

A combination of a minor north swell mixing with a moderate east-northeasterly windswell will provide our winter shores with some action today into Tuesday, but it will likely be sloppy and choppy. Select breaks could see slightly larger surf but don’t expect too much. A series of moderate south swells are on the way beginning [...]

 

Maui Surf Report for April 22nd, 2012

Slowly rising windswell should be expected over the next few days, rising near but staying under advisory levels. A weak low in the Gulf of Alaska several days ago sent a minor swell toward our north to north-northeast facing shores which could possibly start to rise later in the day today, but we will probably [...]

 

Maui Surf Report for April 21st, 2012

Nothing more than weak windswell from the northeast and extra tiny ripples out of the north-northwest is expected today and it isn’t expected to improve this weekend. our next chance for any action won’t come until Monday when a minor north swell arrives and bumps the flatness potentially to head-high levels or slightly higher if [...]

 

Maui Surf Report for April 19th, 2012

Don’t expect to find any action at all today as all shores approach flatness. A new south-southwest to south swell is possible later in the day or more likely Friday morning, but it is quite minor and should only offer waist-high surf at its peak… and we can’t even expect that. The windswell is on [...]

 

Maui Surf Report for April 18th, 2012

Good luck finding any surf today over thigh-high levels. The combination of fading north swell with east-northeast windswell may be able to offer something to ride along the winter shores, but it certainly won’t amount to much. Leftovers along the south facing shores will hardly be noticeable at all and most breaks will come in [...]

 

Maui Surf Report for April 17th, 2012

Whatever surf there was out there is fading away and very little will be leftover today. Rising windswell out of the east will help to keep our north and east facing shores from going flat but rough and choppy short-period windslop is not exactly exciting. Our north and northwest facing shores will see fading surf [...]

 

Maui Surf Report for April 16th, 2012

Quickly fading leftovers from the west-northwest to north-northwest should still offer a little something to ride today at or a few feet over head-high levels along our winter shores and the best locations could still pull in some larger sets. Get what you can as this may very well be the last decent swell of [...]

 

Maui Surf Report for April 15th, 2012

The High Surf Advisory will continue today effective through 8pm this evening for Maui’s north facing shores. Most breaks on Maui won’t reach anywhere near advisory levels, but a few of the exceptional breaks could see sets at double-overhead or larger. This new west-northwest to northwest swell will fill in along Maui’s north and northwest [...]

 

Maui Surf Report for April 14th, 2012

The National Weather Service has issued a High Surf Advisory for Maui’s north facing shores effective later this evening until 8pm Sunday evening. Although this west-northwest to northwest swell will reach Kaua`i around noon today it most likely won’t reach Maui’s shores until after the sun sets this evening. Prior to its arrival the surf [...]

 

Maui Surf Report for April 13th, 2012

Although a fading south-southeast swell may offer some surf along our summer shores today, it is more likely that we won’t see any action until a new south-southeast swell fills in Saturday, but the potential is there for some fairly decent surf at the better breaks. The windswell is pau and a fading minor north-northwest [...]

 

Maui Surf Report for April 12th, 2012

The surf will be fading on all shores today and not much action should be expected anywhere, but some areas may still see a few small sets rolling through if you know where to look. Another minor north-northwest swell may arrive later in the day today but most likely won’t appear until Friday morning, and [...]

 

Maui Surf Report for April 11th, 2012

We should see the arrival of a small new south swell today but it may not fill in here on Maui until Thursday, not to mention that it shouldn’t really amount to much anyway. A slightly larger south swell is expected to arrive Friday into Saturday that should offer a much better chance for fun-sized [...]

 

Maui Surf Report for April 10th, 2012

Fading, tiny to small surf should be expected today. Although tiny leftovers from the northwest may still be limping through some north shore breaks, most areas will only see windswell at waist- to chest-high levels. Tiny leftovers from the south may sneak into a few south shores breaks but it should not be expected. The [...]

 

Maui Surf Report for April 9th, 2012

A series of minor northwest to north-northeast swells should keep our boards in the water through the week, although we’re talking head-high levels at best at most breaks. The models continue to hint toward a pair of northwest to north-northwest swells developing later in the week that could pump the surf to fairly decent levels [...]

 

Maui Surf Report for April 8th, 2012

Fading surf should be expected along all shores today as a mix of north-northwest, north-northeast swells fade. Although a tiny to small south swell is passing through, it isn’t amounting to much and will likely be smaller today. A new minor west-northwest may fill in later in the day today, but it was generated so [...]

 

Maui Surf Report for April 7th, 2012

Increasing but rough and choppy windswell will add a bit more to the mix of north-northwest and north swell today along our winter shores as a tiny to small south swell tries to offer a little something along the summer shores. Select north and northwest exposed breaks could reach overhead levels today and should continue [...]

 

Maui Surf Report for April 6th, 2012

A wide range of new but quite insignificant swells are due to fill in today along all exposed shores today. Slowly increasing east-northeasterly windswell will be enhanced with swell out of the northwest, north-northwest, and north-northeast but wave heights will struggle to rise above chest-high levels at even the best breaks. We may get lucky [...]

 

Maui Surf Report for April 5th, 2012

Overall, tiny to small surf is all that will be on tap today. Leftover energy out of the north should keep our winter shores from going flat today but surf heights probably won’t come in over chest-high at the best breaks and will be quite a bit smaller at the lesser breaks. Weak windswell may [...]

 

Maui Surf Report for April 4th, 2012

Although a few select breaks saw some well-overhead surf yesterday it is on the way down and will probably be only around head-high levels today. The best breaks could still see a few good sets though, so take advantage of it while it is still here. Our next chance for anything decent won’t come until [...]
