Best Buoy App for Surfers

This is by far the best buoy app for surfers. All the right info, clean interface, and includes an Apple Watch face and Widgets for your iPhone Home Screen. Great jobs guys — thank you!!

Limited

Limited stations to get data from.

Developer Response ,

Hello,

Sad to hear that the more than ~330 buoy stations are not enough =(

Just to bear in mind, we only provide stations with wave height data as the main purpose of the app is water/wave/surfing related sports 🏄.

In any case please feel free to contact the support team within the app (Settings gear > Support) and indicate the name of the stations that you are needing, we can try to add them in case they have wave height data available.

Best regards,
Pablo.
