Read the buoy. Watch the water. Train your call. Wave Whisperer pulls current buoy data straight from CDIP (Scripps) and NOAA's National Data Buoy Center. See current swell height, period, direction, and sea surface temperature for your break, all on one clean screen. Built for surfers who want the numbers as measured, not a forecast. Study for a season. See the results. With time, discipline and patience, you become a better surfer who understands the ocean and your break. What you get: • Your own buoys: five to start, the nearest to you when location is on, then any of 109 across the North Pacific • Individual swells and the average period, two switches you turn on when you want them • 24-hour comparison, so you can see how conditions have shifted • Recent data at a glance; press and hold a row to log a past reading • Your logbook: tap the pencil to log a reading, name it what you saw, and star it. When a live reading matches a starred log, an amber ring highlights CURRENT • A rotating compass with swell direction on the rim • Buoy School: what every reading means, with CDIP's own definitions and links • Dark display mode for dawn patrol • Feet and Fahrenheit, or meters and Celsius; 12-hour or 24-hour clock • A share card for the current reading No ads.
