03 · Location

In context.

A wide, fine-sand Atlantic bay backed by grass-topped dunes, flanked by rocky cliffs, turning stony near the back at high tide. Consistent south-westerly winds make it a popular kitesurfing venue, while the gently sloping sandy break suits swimmers and beginners. In the June-August lifeguard season, kitesurfing and other watersports are barred from the swimming area, reserved for swimmers 10:30-19:00. Dogs are banned from the beach in bathing season.

Can 4Shor provide more accurate forecasts than my existing app?

Current forecast apps only provide swell, wind and tide data and in many cases expect you to do the analysis yourself. 4Shor goes the extra mile — we model how waves will break and build that into our forecasts to allow us to create conditions scores for your chosen water sport and skill level – something that no other app does.

Is it really a free trial?
