In context.
A sheltered, fine-sand beach on a calm strait shore, backed by pine forest, with Atlantic swell damped into low-wave conditions suited to kitesurfing, paddleboarding and swimming. A designated kite/windsurf corridor sits at the north, set by municipal order to keep practice clear of swimmers. Rocks lie at the fringes; a gentle gradient exposes a wide area at low tide. Lifeguards supervise 11:00-19:00, 4 July-23 August; dogs banned in summer.

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?
Yep. Both Premium and Pro come with a 7-day free trial. You get full access for 7 days, then decide if the sessions saved are worth the price of a post-surf burrito.

Think of it as a smart local who knows when it's mellow enough for learning and when it's time to sit on the sand and watch.
