Surf Seeker is a worldwide surf directory. Every surf spot has its own page with the wave details, a map, a live surf forecast and the surf schools, shops, rentals, places to stay, restaurants and jobs within 25 km.

6,117 surf spots in 123 countries, each with its own page.

Yes. Browsing spots, forecasts and businesses is free and needs no account. An account is only needed to leave a review.

Forecasts come from Open-Meteo marine and weather models and are updated every hour: wave height, swell period and direction, wind speed and gusts, water and air temperature and UV index, hour by hour for 24 hours and day by day for 7 days.

Automatically, by distance: a spot page lists the schools, shops, rentals, places to stay, restaurants and jobs within 25 km of the break, nearest first.
