Buoyk

Checked the buoy before your last trip? Now you will. NOAA/NDBC conditions mapped, cleaned, and charted for the water you care about.

Stop loading NOAA text files on your phone.

Buoyk turns the public NOAA/NDBC buoy network into a fast, clean native app. Open the map, find a buoy, and read actual conditions without fighting tables, missing-value clutter, or generic weather summaries.

Built for boaters, anglers, surfers, paddlers, sailors, dive planners, coastal photographers, and anyone who checks the water before making a plan.

What you get:

• A map of public NOAA/NDBC buoy and station observations
• Wave, wind, water temperature, atmosphere, tide, and current readings when stations report them
• Station detail pages that hide unavailable fields instead of showing useless placeholders
• History charts for available measurements
• Favorites with custom station names and up to 3 highlighted measurements
• BuoyCAM images where NDBC publishes station cameras
• Metric and imperial display options
• Native iPhone and iPad support
