Surf Spoting is a free surf forecast and spot guide covering Portugal, northern Spain and Morocco, with more of the world being added. For each of 947 surf spots it shows swell, wind and tide, a 14-day outlook of where to surf, a guide (break type, best swell, wind and tide, hazards, crowd), free webcam links and Copernicus satellite pictures of the surf zone.
What makes it different
Satellite pictures and a history of where the sandbanks form (Copernicus Sentinel-2).
Ratings that depend on your surfing level, not only wave height.
A personal model that learns from the sessions you log and alerts you when conditions are like a good session.
Honest uncertainty: several wave models and buoys are compared, and every guide shows its sources and confidence.
