This useful application is designed to allow you to quickly assess if you can go surfing on any particular day in the state of Western Australia. Rather than a forecast, this app provides you with a visual guide of the near-real time wave, wind and tide data in your location.
At a users request 4-day synoptic charts have also now been added.
The app also now includes a visual guide to whether the wind is offshore at any particular break. Very useful if you are travelling and not aware of local conditions.
Although the wave data is limited to only 9 locations from Esperance around the Cape and up to Geraldton, it is particularly useful as it details the direction, height and period of both the swell and the local sea. Even if the buoy is not situated directly in your location it will give you a useful guide. Get started by going to the location tab and clicking on your location in either the waves and wind sections to check if the conditions are ok to go surfing.
Note One: This app requires an internet connection!
Note Two: This app depends on functioning buoys off the coast of WA, so there maybe times when you are unable to get the near-real time wave data.
