Satellite-derived bathymetry with 10 m pixels and 10 cm vertical resolution out to ~40 m depth. The shape of the seabed is what determines where and how waves break.
Most apps run a single global model at 9–25 km. We blend regional NWP from national meteorological offices at 1.3–2 km — UK Met Office UKV, Météo-France AROME HD, ItaliaMeteo ICON-2I — with ECMWF IFS for the 8-day horizon. Finer resolution means the sea breeze, cliff funnelling and bay shadowing that changes everything for a session.
A nearshore wave model propagates the spectrum across the bathymetric mesh — modelling refraction, shoaling, dissipation, focusing and breaking as it goes. Most apps stop at swell + wind. We go further.
10 sport models × 4 ability levels weight wave height, period, wind, tide and breaking conditions differently — calibrated against ridden sessions so the scores mean what they say.
A remote, cliff-backed 500 m beach reached only on foot from a hilltop car park, in a shell-shaped bay giving some shelter from north winds. A naturist beach, though swimsuits and nudism coexist. The sandy beach break gives consistent left and right waves, best on northwest swell with southeast wind, but dangerous rip currents are present, especially at mid-to-high tide. Lifeguard and Red Cross cover run mid-June to early September.
