Oahu Surf Report
Undoubtedly, the most popular Oahu surf report is Surf News
Network (SSN). They are based on Oahu and have been doing
our local surf report for years. SSN features both a website
and telephone hotline (808) 596-SURF. While their Oahu surf
reports are normally accurate, they have blown more than a
few reports. (There is speculation that they occassionally
give misleading surf reports to keep particular surf breaks
empty, however, keep in mind, this is purely speculative and
overall, they do a great job.)

Forcaster Pat Caldwell of the National Oceanographic Data
Center (NODC) argueably offers the best Oahu surf report.
His great knowledge of ocean conditions, storm formation,
buoy & wind readings make his reports some of the most accurate
to date. Caldwell usually gives updates three times per week
and offers swell data, wind speed, direction, and tendancy,
as well as swell probability, tendancy, height, and direction.
His 5 day wind forecasts are uncanny.
