FAQ
Questions Tides Effect Calculator owners ask.
- 01
How can I find the best time to surf?
You can use the calculate_optimal_tide capability to identify the specific water level that provides the best surfing conditions for your local break.
- 02
Does this capability account for spring tides?
Yes, the capabilities like predict_wave_quality and analyze_current_strength specifically use the spring tide status to adjust predictions for volatility and current intensity.
- 03
Can I predict how strong the currents will be?
Yes, use the analyze_current_strength capability to get the velocity, direction, and hazard level of the water movement.
