## What is SurfSage?

See what the ocean is doing, anywhere on Earth.

SurfSage paints live wave conditions across every coastline on the
planet. Open it and the whole ocean is colored by wave size — blue for
small, green for fun, red and pink for the days most people watch from
the beach. Tap any patch of water for the numbers behind the color.

A LIVE WAVE MAP OF EVERY COAST
Wave height painted across the world's oceans, with named surf breaks
drawn on top. Pan anywhere. It works the same in Portugal as it does in
California.

A REAL SURF REPORT FOR ANY BREAK
Tap a break for a plain-English condition score and the reasons behind
it — wave height, swell period, wind, water temperature — plus an aerial
view so you can see the shape of the coast before you drive to it.

SWELL ALERTS THAT RESPECT YOUR PHONE
Star the breaks you ride, choose the size and quality worth getting up
for, and SurfSage sends one ping when it happens. At most one per spot
per day. No streams, no badges, no noise.

THREE DAYS FORWARD, THREE DAYS BACK
Slide through the forecast and watch a swell arrive before you commit to
the drive. Replay the last three days to see what you missed.

FOUR WAYS TO READ THE WATER
Switch the map between wave height, wave energy, wind and surface
currents.

REPORTS FROM PEOPLE ACTUALLY AT THE BEACH
Ten seconds, a handful of words, completely anonymous. No forecast has
ever seen the sandbar — the person standing on it has.

YOUR OWN LOGBOOK
Every report you file is kept privately, with what you saw and where you
were. Record sessions and keep them.

LOCAL WEATHER
Temperature, wind and the three days ahead for wherever you're standing.

BUILT TO BE READ FAST
Plain words instead of jargon, generous type, and a short guide for
anyone new to reading a forecast — available any time from the home
screen, not just on day one.

NO ADS. NO ACCOUNTS. NO TRACKERS.
Nothing to sign up for. Nothing following you around.

SURFSAGE PRO
Free forever: the live wave map, surf reports for every break, three
saved spots, three swell alerts and three recorded sessions.

SurfSage Pro unlocks unlimited saved spots, unlimited alerts, unlimited
sessions, and the wave energy, wind and current map layers.

IMPORTANT — PLEASE READ
SurfSage is an educational and recreational tool. It is not a
navigation, marine safety, weather warning or emergency service, and
must not be relied upon as one. Everything shown is an estimate and can
be inaccurate, delayed or unavailable. What a wave actually does at any
beach depends on the tide, the sand and the reef.

Surfing and other ocean activities carry an inherent risk of serious
injury and death. You are solely responsible for deciding whether,
where and when to enter the water. For official marine forecasts,
warnings and safety information, consult your national weather service
and local authorities, and follow lifeguards, flags and posted signage.

Waves for the Wise.
