Ocean Safety officials are advising no swimming and ocean activities in North Shore waters from ‘Anini to Kē‘ē, until further notice, due to dangerous ocean conditions.

A High Surf Warning remains in effect for north- and west-facing shores through 6 a.m. Monday, Dec. 23, according to the National Weather Service.

Entering the water in these areas during the High Surf Warning is very hazardous and could cause serious injury or death. Beachgoers are also advised to use extreme caution, as large breaking waves could make it dangerous for those standing along the shoreline.

The warning may be extended or modified as conditions develop. For updated information on ocean and weather alerts, visit the NWS website, www.weather.gov/hfo.
