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.

USA! USA! Just when you thought the title race was over, the ISA World Games come along to give you another chance to cheer, this time backing up East Coast homeboys CJ Hobgood and Ben Bourgeois. Both were on the team the last time America struck gold in 1996, so maybe we’ll git ‘er done this time in Portugal. Watch it live here.
ESA PRC will hold their next event – the Battle of the Bones – on Oct. 25-26. According to organizers: “This contest is our second traditional "Battle;" the "trophies" are the Bones (please feel free to donate to your favorite dog). Please remember that we are surfing for points. The Mid Atlantic Regionals will be held this year in our home district in April 2009. So please be sure to surf as many contests you can, securing all the points you can.”
There’s a new ESM on the streets. Besides the long-awaited South Carolina expose, there’s a Who Da Guy on none other than Barbados’ own Kevin Nicholls.
The national election’s just three weeks away, but there’s another political fight that requires your action. With Congress lifting the ban on offshore drilling , now’s the time to contact your Senators and State Reps and tell them it’s time to explore for fresh energy solutions – not petroleum.
What’s the best part of a surf trip? That giant excess baggage fee the airlines pork you with on both sides, right? Wrong! Well, stop bitching and do something by signing this petition.
It only takes a little asphalt to make water quality worse. And the PR Department of Transportation's proposed bicycle and pedestrian trail is actually a two lane paved road that will harm or destroy beaches, habitat, beach access and water quality and threatens endangered species including sea turtles and Elkhorn coral. Click here to send a letter urging Rincón's Mayor, the Governor of Puerto Rico, the PR Department of Transportation and the Federal Highway Administration to redesign the path with community input.
And volunteers are now testing local waters as part of the Blue Water Task Force — the Surfrider Foundation's water quality monitoring, education and advocacy program created to alert citizens and officials in their communities about water quality problems and to work toward solutions. Samples are collected every Tuesday and results are available on line. For more information, check the BWTF website. And to volunteer, please call 787.823.2784.
