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 quiet, low-occupancy south-facing beach about 260 m long, between a resort and a protected nature reserve. The bottom is mostly lava stones and coarse gravel at the waterline with dark volcanic sand behind, plus a small imported golden-sand section with sunbeds; water shoes are advised. Waters are calm and sheltered, suited to swimming and snorkelling rather than watersports. No lifeguard cover and no organised water activities on the beach itself.
