SwellCast — Surf Forecast
Know before you go. SwellCast gives surfers a clear, instant read on today's conditions — wave height, wind, tide, and a single score from 1 to 10 so you never waste a drive to a flat or blown-out break.
SwellCast turns complex ocean data into one number you can act on. Open the app, see your score, and decide in seconds whether it's worth paddling out.
• Condition Score — a 1–10 rating that weighs swell height, period, wind, and tide together
• Wave Height — primary swell in feet
• Wind — speed and direction, updated throughout the day
• Tide Chart — visualize the full tidal cycle for your session window
• Hourly Breakdown — see which hours of the day peak and which to avoid
• Deep Dive Forecast — tap any hour for a detailed view of what's driving the conditions
SwellCast uses your location to instantly surface the nearest break when you open the app — no setup needed.
Bookmark your regular spots and switch between them with a single tap.
Traveling? Search hundreds of surf spots worldwide and add any of them to your saved list.
Set a condition threshold and SwellCast will notify you the morning of any day the score hits your target. You choose the bar — only want to surf when it's an 8 or above? Set it once and let the app do the watching.
• Condition alerts — notified when your score threshold is met for any upcoming day
• Daily briefing — a morning summary of today's score and rating, delivered before you leave the house
• Configurable thresholds — set your minimum score from the notification settings menu
Add the SwellCast widget to your home screen and see your spot's condition score, wave height, and wind speed without unlocking your phone. Available in small and medium sizes. Refreshes automatically every two hours.
