More Information | Rate Accuracy of This Model
Surfline's LOLA Swell Model is the ONLY global swell model that can separate individual swells to accurately calculate surf heights for any location on Earth. Every surf spot will only have a limited range of swells that produce good surf at that location. Compare the LOLA swell forecast with a spot's "Optimal Conditions" information and your own local knowledge to score the best surf.
The "Swell Rose" above is the only one of it's kind in the world. This shows the directions of all the incoming swells
(N=0° East=90° etc). If you mouse over the swell rose you can see detailed raw numbers of the underlying swells.
US Weather data comes from the WeatherUnderground array of personal weather stations. Data is near realtime. International weather comes from LOLAs high resolution models or WUG where possible.
Tides are generated using the most excellent Xtide system.

In Loving Memory: It’s with a heavy heart we bring the tragic news of young Davis Miller’s passing. Miller was a young chef at his father’s restaurant in Costa Rica and an aspiring surfer with the distinction of being youngest kid to ever compete in the Mike Stewart Pipe Line Contest. He was 22 years of age. His memorial last Thursday in Seal Beach drew about 400 people. A paddle out at Playa Hermosa, Costa Rica, is scheduled for sunset at about 5:30pm (2 hours ahead of California) on Saturday. Watch live from the local cam.
