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.

The original dons of the American surf industry, who came to power in the late ’50s and early ’60s, arose from the not-so-mean streets of south Orange County. They became known as the Dana Point Mafia. Read all about industry history and Surfwear’s Mount Rushmore at Orangecoastmagazine.com.

What's your surf spot worth? Help us find out. Researchers at UCLA are
conducting a survey of surfers who surf at California surf spots to evaluate
their worth. You can help by visiting this link and filling out the survey:
http://www.beachology.com/surf. Those who fill out the survey for Trestles between August 1 and September 30 are entered in a drawing to win a beautiful Pipeline Masters photography book signed by Stacey Peralta. Your participation can help us better protect and manage California surf spots in the future.
