Wave Day vs SurfMap

Surf forecasts tell you what the ocean might do. Wave Day helps you understand what those conditions mean for you — at each individual spot. Wave Day combines detailed surf forecasting with a personal Surf Log that learns from the sessions you actually surf. Save a session and Wave Day stores the conditions from that exact time window. As your history grows, it compares those sessions with upcoming forecasts and identifies the conditions that have worked best for you at that specific spot. When similar conditions are expected again, Wave Day can notify you with the spot, day and time that best match your own surfing history. YOUR SURF. YOUR SPOTS. YOUR CONDITIONS. Generic forecasts often classify surfers as beginner, intermediate or advanced. Wave Day takes a different approach. Your ideal conditions are personal — and they can change from one beach to the next. The same swell, wind or tide can produce a great session at one spot and a poor session nearby. That is why Wave Day learns by spot. The more Surf Logs you save, the more useful your personal history becomes. PERSONAL SURF LOG After a session, save it to the corresponding spot and rate your experience. Wave Day keeps the conditions from that period so you can understand what made the session work. • Save sessions by surf spot • Preserve the conditions from each session • Rate your sessions • Compare past sessions with future forecasts • Receive alerts when matching conditions return • Build a different profile for every spot DETAILED SURF FORECAST AT A GLANCE See the forecast by hour together with key ocean and weather information, including wave conditions, wind, tides, water temperature and weather. Wave energy is also included — an important metric for experienced and professional surfers who want more context than wave height alone. SEE HOW WIND AND WAVES HIT THE SPOT A satellite view of each location helps you understand the geography of the beach and how forecast conditions may interact with it. View the spot together with wind and wave direction by time range, making it easier to understand why the same values can behave very differently from one beach to another. SURF SPOTS AROUND THE WORLD Add spots anywhere in the world by searching by name, entering coordinates, or dropping a pin on the map. Save favorites, check upcoming conditions, create a Surf Log for each location, and discover suggested spots worldwide. BUILT FOR EVERY LEVEL — WITHOUT REDUCING YOU TO A LEVEL Wave Day can be useful whether you are starting out, surfing regularly, competing, or practicing another water sport. Instead of assuming that every beginner, intermediate or advanced surfer wants the same conditions, Wave Day learns from your own sessions and from each individual spot. GLOBAL AND PERSONAL Wave Day supports 4 languages, adapts automatically to your device language, and also lets you change language manually. Choose the measurement system and metrics that work for you. You can also discover surfers connected with Wave Day, together with partners, sponsors and brands that are part of the community.

SurfMap rates the surf for your level at more than 5,000 spots around the world. For each spot, it shows you the best hours to go and tells you why. RATED FOR YOUR LEVEL • Tell SurfMap if you're a beginner, an intermediate or an advanced surfer, and every hour of the week gets a rating for you. • Each rating gives its reason in plain words, like "Ideal size for your level" or "Too much wind". • When the tide makes a spot dangerous, a warning sign shows next to its rating. • Rate your sessions and the AI adds a personal score that predicts how much you'll enjoy each hour. It runs on your iPhone and learns only from your own sessions. MAKE EACH SPOT YOURS • Tell SurfMap which tides work at your spot, which ones are dangerous and how big the waves really get there, and the ratings take it into account. • Save your favorite spots. Around 6:30 pm, SurfMap tells you if one of them looks good tomorrow, and it stays quiet when nothing is worth the trip. • Home Screen widgets show the spot you pick, or the closest spot wherever you are. FIND WHERE TO SURF • See which spots around you, or which of your favorites, look good today, tomorrow, this weekend or later in the week. • Hourly graphs show the waves, wind, tide and weather. Drag across the day to check any hour. • The nearby forecast shows seven days for every spot around you. Open the week in landscape, or compare two spots side by side. • Search spots, towns and guides by the name locals use or the one travelers know. WHERE THE FORECAST COMES FROM • Waves, wind and weather come from global wave and weather models, refreshed twice a day for the next seven days. The ratings are SurfMap's own reading of them. • Tides are predicted for each spot from its own tidal constants, the same method behind printed tide tables. 16 SURF GUIDES • The guides cover Ericeira, Peniche, the Algarve, Hossegor, both sides of the Basque Country, Galicia, Asturias, Cornwall, the west coast of Ireland, Fuerteventura, Taghazout, Bali, the Mentawai Islands, Siargao and Sri Lanka. • Each guide says which spot suits your level, the tide that makes it work and the hazards to watch out for. ASK SIRI • "Hey Siri, does it surf today in Huntington Beach with SurfMap?" Siri answers with your rating and the best window, and a tap opens the spot. • With Apple Intelligence, ask SurfMap anything, like "Is tomorrow better than today at Huntington Beach?" Siri questions need iOS 26. APPLE WATCH • Track your session from your wrist, with no phone in the water. The watch counts your waves, and notices missed waves and wipeouts too. • Follow your heart rate, calories and paddle distance live, and keep the GPS track. If your watch runs out of battery, the session isn't lost. • The watch shows conditions and tide for your spots, and its complications can follow the closest spot. YOUR SURF LOG • Every session goes into your log with its conditions and the board you rode, and each month gets its own recap page. • Share a spot's forecast, a session or a whole month as an image. • Your profile keeps your records and a stamp for each new spot and each new country. • Surf workouts go to Apple Health and count toward your rings. SurfMap has no ads. Please note: All features in SurfMap require a subscription. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.
