Be your own surf forecaster

A great way to learn more about weather and surf conditions and decide for yourself where the surf is rather than relying on cams or other people’s opinion. No🐑 here

The Surfline Killer

A breath of fresh air in todays forecasting industry. This app puts the decision back into the surfers hands, and allows you to learn how to read the data produced by forecast models. This app is worth every penny. The lead developer is constantly improving the app, and is very receptive to suggestions.

Cool concept

Mandatory subscription required to use this app past the 30 day trial. Won’t be using it due to that. But the overall idea is cool.

10/10

Great App with lots of thought put into it. Clean UI and ran by people WHO CARE.

Worth it

Exactly what I was missing with Surfline. SwellScope lets me identify what surf I like and then lets me know if it’s hitting the same or similar. Watching cams or looking at star reviews doesn’t help as much as that.
