## What is DiveSlate?

Stop guessing. Start diving.

DiveSlate takes the guesswork out of dive planning. We pull together tides, waves, wind, weather, visibility, and currents into a single dive-ability score — updated throughout the day — so you can tell at a glance whether conditions are worth the trip.

DIVE-ABILITY SCORE
Our 6-factor algorithm combines wave height, wind speed, tidal flow, water visibility, weather conditions, and current strength into one easy-to-read score from 0 to 100. Green means go. Red means maybe hit the pub instead.

CURRENT CONDITIONS
See up-to-date data for every dive site: water temperature, wave height and period, wind speed and direction, tide stage, and recent visibility reports from fellow divers.

HOURLY FORECASTS
DiveSlate delivers hour-by-hour condition breakdowns for the current day. Upgrade to Pro for the full 7-day outlook so you can plan your week with confidence.

BEST DIVE WINDOW
No time to study charts? We highlight the single best window each day — the hour range when conditions peak — so you can plan around your schedule.

INTERACTIVE MAP
Browse 50+ dive sites across Florida on a beautiful map. Tap any pin to see current conditions, forecasts, and community reports. Filter by dive-ability score to find sites worth visiting right now.

COMMUNITY CONDITION REPORTS
After your dive, share a quick condition report — visibility, current, surface conditions — and help the entire community dive smarter. Reports feed back into our scoring model to improve accuracy over time.

SMART ALERTS
Set alerts for your favorite sites. DiveSlate notifies you when conditions hit your target score so you never miss a great dive day.

50+ DIVE SITES
From the springs of North Florida to the reefs of the Keys, DiveSlate covers the sites you actually dive. Don't see the site you're going to? Request it through the app!

### 3/5 — Visibility not accurate

*2026-05-04*

I feel like the weather and wave reports are accurate but the visibility is just made up. I was looking up some Pennekamp  sites in the keys and it says that they are all “164+ plus”. I’ve never had better than 80’ viz there, let alone 164. Same thing for Looe Key. Would rather it just say “no viz report” if there isn’t an accurate estimate.

**Developer response:** Thanks for reporting this! Our visibility scores were calibrated for ideal conditions rather than typical ones. Our next app update will ship with a fix that recalibrates this score downward and shows estimates as a range (e.g. "25–40ft") so the prediction reflects the genuine uncertainty. We truly appreciate you giving DiveSlate a try!
