So here's my honest take on Surfline: Wave & Surf Reports. I've tested a bunch of weather and surf forecast apps, and this one's pretty solid. The live cams are super helpful for seeing real-time conditions, and the detailed forecasts make it easy to plan ahead. The only downside is that the free version has some annoying ads, but it's not a dealbreaker. Overall, I'd say it's one of the better surf report apps out there.

Description

Been using Surfline: Wave & Surf Reports for a couple months now. It’s basically a weather app focused on surf conditions – you can check wave height, wind, tides, and all that good stuff. Pretty solid app if you’re into surfing or just wanna know what the waves are doing.

Here’s what you do: You can look at live surf cams from over 950 spots around the world to see what the conditions are like. There’s also daily surf reports from the Surfline team, which is pretty cool. And you can use the 16-day forecasts to plan your surf trips – took me a while to figure that out but it’s useful.

Look, if you’re a surfer or just like to be on top of the weather, you’ll probably like this app. It’s not perfect – the ads can be annoying if you don’t pay – but overall it does the job. Worth checking out.
