In context.
A wide, flat, sheltered tidal bay beach about 1.7 km long, backed by dunes, with a coarse sand-and-shell seabed turning to mud; booties advised. Flat-water conditions suit kitesurfing, windsurfing and wingfoiling in set-apart zones, best near high tide since mudflats appear at low water, with offshore oyster farms a hazard. Swimming banned since 2018 due to pollution. Dogs and sand-yachting banned 15 June-15 Sept; lifeguards work July-Aug, 11:00-19:00.

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.
What's the science behind 4Shor?
4Shor uses ShorSense™ — our coastal intelligence engine that combines satellite-derived bathymetry (fancy word for underwater mapping), advanced wave models with wind and tide data to generate precision, hyper-local forecasts.
Is it really a free trial?
