Microplastics are a big problem on O'ahu and im sure the neighboring islands. Anytime there's a big NE swell you can expect to see debris lined along the entire beach. Ive never had a opportunity to visit the James Campbell Wildlife Refuge but Kahana Bay is where I spend alot of time after the new year chasing wind swell.
Today we stopped by the Twin Fin Hotel to pick up a sand sifter provided by Parley to collect a jar and 5 gallon bucket of microplastics.
The local time is 7:18 AM. The tide is currently rising, with a high tide of 2.3 feet set for 8:22 AM. The swell is currently rolling in across the reef at 2.6ft 16 16-second intervals out of the South at 187 degrees. Winds are currently offshore, clocking in at 14 knots from the east north east, gusting up to 21 knots.

The conversation lately has been the Madden-Julian oscillation, its interactions with El Niño Southern Oscillation, and whether we will see a more neutral shift in the next several weeks as we move closer to the winter surf season in the Hawaiian Islands. Welcome back to a new episode on Sunday, November 2nd, 2025. Big Wave surfers from across the north shore gathered for a fun evening at Pinballs, dusting off cobwebs, testing new finless prototypes, and gearing up for an evening of surf. Local time is 2:43 PM. Surf across the north-facing shores of Oahu continues to build as a mix of medium to long-period north-northwest swell fills in across the reef at 9.4ft, 12-second intervals in the 332-degree range,later mixing with a medium-period north-north eest swell associated with an approaching front into the evening hours. The tide is currently falling 1ft with a low tide of zero set at 5:38 pm.

In this follow-up episode, while talking story with Ian Akahi Masterson during our Wayfinding episode on the windward side of O’ahu, I happened to lay my eyes upon a wall of vintage-looking surfboards that caught my attention. In this episode, Ian shares a little history on the original owner of these boards, Samuel “Sammy Streamboat” Mokuahi.
