Real-time swell updates

Features & Capabilities

The Buoy is the simplest way to take the pulse of the ocean. Thanks to data provided by services like the NOAA in the US, Cerema (Candhis) in France, Channel Coastal Observatory in the UK/Ireland, Portus in Spain and Hidrografico in Portugal, the buoy allows you to know in real-time the swell conditions around you: size, period, and direction. But The Buoy goes even further. We cross-reference this data with surf forecasts so you can easily plan your sessions. You can also save your favorite conditions to know exactly when a spot is working according to YOUR criteria. Our widget, very easy to use, allows you to have the conditions at your favourite buoy in real-time on your iPhone's locked screen.

User Reviews

This app shows buoy information over the entire globe. I can easily see multiple buoys in the map view, or look at just my favorites. I love that this app includes wave energy! I'm able to change the wave height to feet, but water temperature is only available in Celsius. It would be great to see it in Fahrenheit as well. Another possible improvement would be the ability to toggle wave energy and water temperature on the map like what is available for wave height and period. Also, I tried to use the Feedback option but it tried to open Apple Mail which I don't have. Perhaps enable Gmail or provide an email address to send feedback to? Otherwise really cool app!
