Nawiliwili, HI Daily Water Report — August 29, 2026
Today in Nawiliwili, it's a mixed bag for water enthusiasts. Sailing takes the top spot with a solid 8.3/10, thanks to consistent northeast winds of 8 to 11 knots, peaking at 25 knots in the afternoon. Surfers will find decent conditions, scoring 7.8/10, with wave heights reaching up to 1.9 meters, although the wind might add a bit of chop as the day progresses. Fishing is also promising with a 7.7/10 score. The solunar major period around midday should enhance your chances, and the rising barometric pressure is a positive sign. Just keep an eye on the rain, which could drizzle lightly throughout the day. Boating and kayaking are less favorable today. Boaters have a moderate 6.1/10, but the combination of swell and wind waves, along with a steady current, makes it a bit challenging. Kayakers might want to sit this one out, given the 4.1/10 score, as the conditions are not ideal with the persistent swell and gusty winds. For wildlife enthusiasts, a 6.9/10 score suggests some activity, especially around the low tides. However, with visibility at just over 6 kilometers, spotting distant wildlife might be tricky. Comparing with recent days, surfing has dipped from the stellar 9.4/10 seen on the 27th and 28th, but fishing has slightly improved. The absence of a diving score today indicates conditions aren't conducive for underwater exploration, unlike the 8.3/10 diving score from the 28th. Looking ahead, expect similar wave conditions but increasing chances of rain through the week, with precipitation peaking on the 2nd of September. The best bet for today? Set sail in the morning before the strongest gusts arrive, and enjoy the wind in your sails.
