03 · Location

In context.

A semi-urban, quiet dark-sand beach stretching roughly 750 m near a river mouth, with basic amenities in a low-key, family setting. Sand is fine inshore but coarse with stones at the waterline, plus a notable drop-off on entry; waves are moderate and this is not a recognised surfing or watersports spot. Nudism is not permitted; kitesurfing, windsurfing and paddleboard use must clear the bathing zone; life jackets mandatory. Lifeguard service is present.

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?
