Maui Surf Forecast
North: Wave heights are expected to be around waist/head high, maybe bigger on the sets for spots around Hana.
West: Surf is ankle/knee high today. The best breaks could get up to knee/waist high on the sets out of the south-southwest.
South: Surf is around knee/waist high today. The best breaks could get up to tummy/chest high on the sets from time to time.
Our current southerly pulse holds through Friday with a fading trend over Saturday. We may see better swells stacking up for the second week of August out of the South Pacific.
Trade swell is expected to hold steady over the next couple of days.
Keep in mind, surf heights are measured on the face of the wave from trough to crest. Heights vary from beach to beach, and at the same beach, from break to break.
