### 5/5 — Best layout.

*2026-08-18, version 3.0.0*

I pay for 2 surf forecasts account. Surf-forecast and Surfline. Surf-forecast is by far my favorite. It’s way cheaper, easier to read, laid out better and it seems to be more accurate. I primarily use it at home in the pacific north west but I am on a surf trip right now to indo and it’s been incredibly helpful and accurate.

### 5/5 — Très bien

*2026-08-11*

Super:
Assez fiable et détaillé, mais compréhensible pour les débutants🏄🏼‍♂️🤩

### 5/5 — Surfs up or isn’t

*2026-07-31, version 2.8.3*

I like this app, it’s clear and for the most part accurate.
I use it often and as we move into the colder seasons I will be using it more.

### 5/5 — Surf reports worth reading

*2026-07-29, version 2.8.3*

*2026-07-08, version 2.8.3*

Surf-Cast is very helpful in previewing surf conditions in preparation for an outing. Very accurate.

### 2/5 — App worse than website

*2026-06-19, version 2.8.3*

Can only see 6 days of forecast on the app but 12 days on the website using the same account. Make 12 days available on the app please!

### 5/5 — Most reliable app

*2026-06-12, version 2.8.3*

While I am not a surfer… I AM an open water swimmer. This app lets me know what I am in store for on any given day. I have looked and compared it to others and I have found it to be the best!

### 5/5 — SF Review

*2026-06-07, version 2.8.3*

I always check in SF in advance before heading out, app is not always spot on but is reliable and consistent. Has heaps of popular surfs spots on the map. I give it 5 stars.

### 5/5 — Top forecast

*2026-05-28*

Love it !

### 1/5 — Sneaky and deceptive

*2026-05-25, version 2.8.3*

I canceled my subscription on apple settings like it tells you to do only to find out it was still taking money for a further 4 weeks!! and I had to log on online to cancel it! This is sneaky behavior. Daylight robbery
