Maui is offering calm waters and an excellent chance of snorkeling with turtles in areas across all three zones today!

Northwest: 7.0

Conditions are calm and clear inside the bays, particularly inside of Kapalua Bay and Honolua Bay. Currents remain strong near and beyond the bay points. The main factors slightly lowering the score is the presence of clouds, the chance of scattered showers and breezy winds making seas rough outside of the bays.

Ka’anapali: 8.5

—> Because of ongoing relief efforts, please be extremely mindful in this zone.

Kahekili Beach Park is exceptionally calm with only very small waves. The south face of Black Rock is also incredibly nice this morning. As usual, currents are strong in deeper water. While the waves are pretty small, they may pick up slightly, especially along the beach south of Black Rock, but probably won’t get too big. Morning clouds should clear up. Light winds are expected all day.

South Shore: 8.0

Ocean conditions are looking great at most beaches. The waves will probably rise a little bit more throughout the day, but nothing very big is expected. The Kamaole Beaches, Ulua Beach, and Makena Landing are all looking calm and clear. There’s cloud cover this morning, which should clear up sometime. Light onshore breeze is expected later.

🖤 Hawaiian dascyllus (Dascyllus albisella) is a small fish that has a unique adaptation to its environment.

🪸 It often finds shelter among the stinging tentacles of branching corals, such as Pocillopora. Despite the potential danger posed by the coral’s stings, the Hawaiian dascyllus is immune to these toxins, allowing it to safely hide from predators within the coral branches.

🐠 This symbiotic relationship not only provides the fish with protection but also with a prime feeding spot, as it can quickly dart out to capture plankton and other small particles that float by.
