Surf forecast · spot by spot.

Same swell. Different waves. A swell can light up one break and barely reach the next. TrueForecast is built around that difference: we combine global ocean models, swell physics and local spot intelligence to forecast the waves that actually break where you surf — not just the swell moving through deep water.

Find the best time to paddle out, discover new breaks and plan your next surf trip with a clearer picture of the ocean.

SURF FORECAST FOR EVERY BREAK
Hour-by-hour breaking wave height, swell direction and period, wind speed and direction, tide and wave energy. Wind is shown in context — offshore, sideshore or onshore for that specific spot. The forecast is refreshed with new model runs throughout the day.

STAR RATINGS AND TRUESCORE™
Read a day in a second with simple star ratings, where poor wind fades the stars. TrueScore turns the conditions at each break into one 0–100 score, from VERY POOR to EPIC, and Swell Force adds a 0–10 view of the energy in the water. Tap any day to see the best window and the reasons behind the rating.

BUILT FOR EACH BREAK
The same swell does not produce the same waves everywhere. TrueForecast considers each spot's orientation, exposure and swell window to estimate the waves at the break.

SEEN: REPORTS FROM THE WATER
See what surfers reported at the break in the last few hours — size and time — next to the forecast. Verified reports carry a badge. At the beach? Report what you've seen in a few taps.
