Today’s Tide
Reading the tide…

Banyans (Kona) catches NW swells that wrap down the coast in winter plus summer S swells, and goes glassy in the morning before the trades fill in. The sun sets straight into the lineup.

The wave height above is in Hawaiian scale — measured from the back of the wave, roughly half the face — the way it’s called in the water here. Tides are NOAA predictions for the nearest station, updated live.
