## What is Skindive?

Skindive is a companion app for skin diving and shore foraging.

• Live sea map: waves, wind, water temperature (official Korean observatory data), no-entry zones and fishery areas
• Tap any spot for conditions: wave, wind, current, water temp, tide and an entry verdict
• 16-day forecast table with water-clarity estimates
• Apple Watch dive tracking: depth, heart rate, dive time, ascent beeps, GPS path
• Dive logs with route maps, catch records and stats
• Buddy finder and safety tools (siren, SOS)

Built by divers, for divers. Stay safe and enjoy the sea.
