The Buoy shows you the swell measured at sea by real buoys, live, with the wind and the tide. Not a model's estimate: the measurement. For everyone who heads out on the water: surfing, kiting, windsurfing, sailing, boating, fishing, diving, paddling or swimming. Height, period, direction, energy: every reading comes from a buoy published by services like NOAA, Cerema (Candhis), Puertos del Estado, Rijkswaterstaat and MET Norway. Where there's no buoy, satellites from ESA, EUMETSAT, Copernicus and CNES fill the gaps. LIVE • Every buoy around you on one map • Charts from 6 hours to 7 days, measurement and forecast overlaid • The tide at the nearest station • Real wind at the nearest weather station • The reading for any past day ALWAYS AT HAND • Alerts: know as soon as the swell changes at your buoys • Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets • A Live Activity to follow a buoy while the swell comes in • Siri: "How's the sea in The Buoy?"
