In context.
A gently sloping shingle-and-sand North Kent shore on the sheltered Thames Estuary, backed by grassy slopes, with groynes and no surf break, suited to flat-water kitesurfing, windsurfing, sailing and paddleboarding. A low-tide spit extends about half a mile seaward; a strong cross-current can sweep walkers into deeper water as the tide turns. Council lifeguards patrol May-September. Dogs are banned 1 May-30 September; an 8-knot craft speed limit applies.

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?
