About this map

Wave forecasts are provided by Windy using ECMWF WAM. Colours show significant wave height; animation shows wave direction. Use the map’s own colour key and timeline to explore its forecast, independently of the day and hour selected above. Coastal coverage varies, and offshore waves can differ from breaking surf. Windy receives the selected coordinates when the map loads. Recenter returns to your selected city.
