Today’s Tide
Reading the tide…

Pāʻia faces the open North Pacific, so it lights up on N–NW groundswell through the winter (roughly October–April) and goes quiet in summer. Cleanest on light or offshore (S/SE) winds, early before the trades stand up.

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.
