South shore
Barbers

    • 1.4ft

Medium size southerly energies at the buoys. Check the Lahaina webcam if interested, for size, conditions and consistency.


North shore

NW energy disappeared while the ENE windswell picked up. Below are the maps of June 11 through 13 that show the fetch that generated it and will keep generating it for quite a few more days.


Home guess for Hookipa is waist to chest high with bigger sets in the middle of the day when the trades are strongest.

Wind map at noon. The other ones can be found here.
