At a glance, discover the evolution of the swell and the wind, and decide if you are going to surf today, tomorrow, or the other days of the week!
Yadusurf offers an instant reading of surfing conditions, and allows you to go further with an hour-by-hour precise vision for experts.
Yadusurf also provides a text description of the conditions understandable by everyone, which makes it a good tool for beginners!
Start by choosing your area (Manche, Normandy, Brittany, Vendée, Charentes, Girondes, Landes, Basque Country, or Mediterranean), choose your spot, and the Surfometer appears for the current day and the next day.
Swipe to see the next days.
For each day, the surfometer shows the size of the swell (the blue graph), the strength and direction of the wind (the arrows), the weather, as well as a rating (between 0 and 3 stars) indicating the quality of the surf.
Wind direction is very important. The red arrows indicate a sea wind, and the yellow arrows indicate a favorable land wind.
The number written in each arrow is the wind speed, in Beaufort.
"Tap" on the screen and you will see additional information such as a text description of the weather conditions, as well as a table giving hour by hour and figures the height of the swell, its period, as well as the direction and the wind force.
