## What is Surfcast?

Surfcast is a surf forecast for surfers who like to read the data themselves. Compare four wave models, check swell, wind and tide in 3-hour slots and pick the best session of the week.

FORECAST FOR EVERY SESSION
• Wave height, period and direction in 8 slots a day, from 00:00 to 21:00
• Primary, secondary and tertiary swell, plus wind waves
• Wind speed and direction, and rain
• Tide curve with high and low tide times
• Swell overview graph: the coming days at a glance, tap any day to open it

COMPARE FOUR WAVE MODELS
Switch between GFS Wave (NOAA), ECMWF WAM, Météo-France MFWAM and DWD, or compare them on one chart. When the models agree, go surfing; when they don't, you know the forecast is uncertain.

SPOTS WORLDWIDE
• Browse spots by continent, country and region, or search by name
• Spot map and spots near you
• Favorite spots for quick access

WIDGETS
