Box Jellyfish Days

Box jellyfish arrive in Waikiki approximately 8-11 days after the full moon. In addition to Waikiki, the jellyfish may show up at Hanauma Bay, Waimea Bay and occasionally the Waianae Coast and Windward Coast (Kailua).
1^st day of influx is usually on the 8^th or 9^th day after the full moon, lasting 2 or 3 days. Exact arrival timing and magnitude vary month to month.

2018 Box Jellyfish Calendar

Check with lifeguards if you are unsure about ocean conditions or if you are concerned about jellyfish.
