**This app delivers forecast information from VIRTUAL BUOYS. This requires some interpretation on your part. Virtual buoys sometimes report swells heading out to sea when there are strong offshore wind.

Please be careful of this, and remember that the swell forecast we are delivering is for a point in the ocean, not at a beach so if there is a headland the swell must wrap around, the waves at the beach will be smaller than the swell at the buoy location.

The benefits of this are much faster loading times, and more accurate swell data for those that can make accurate interpretations.

Thanks for understanding!** Learn more about this in the forecast information tab in the menu
