Gdzie te fale: surf i kite
Oleksii Vasylevskyi
To go or not to go? Know in 10 seconds. Most forecasts give you the swell tens of kilometres offshore. Gdzie te fale (Polish for "where are the waves") carries it all the way to the beach: a physics model runs the swell across the nearshore sandbars and shows which spot will work, at what hour, and how well. WAVES: THE BALTIC, MODELLED TO THE SHORE • A map that shows where it breaks best: wave height and period, crest lines bending over the bars, hotspots. • A session-quality score for every spot and every hour. Honest: we don't oversell marginal days. • The whole week in one view. Find the day and the break worth a dawn start. • The entire Polish coast: Świnoujście, Łeba, Władysławowo, the Hel Peninsula, the Gulf of Gdańsk and Sobieszewo. WIND: KITE, WINDSURF, WING • One switch at the top of the map: WAVES or WIND. Same coast, this time read for the wind. • 16 popular kite and windsurf spots: Łeba to Jastrzębia Góra, plus Puck Bay and Hel. • GTF, our house wind: a blend of models calibrated against measurements from IMGW weather stations on the Polish coast. Prefer a single model? Pick one in Wind mode. • A week of wind in one view: when it blows, how hard and from where. ABROAD: NEW • Heading for the ocean? Surf it like a local. 65 spots in Morocco, Portugal, France and Tenerife. • AT SEA and AT THE BREAK: next to the open-sea forecast you get the swell carried to the shore. How much wraps around the point, how much it grows over the shallows. • Live cams at most spots, so you can see it for yourself. WHY TRUST IT Behind the forecast is a nearshore wave model and a detailed map of the seabed, not a single number from the open sea. When the forecast and the beach disagree, we check what we missed. We never dress a day up. FREE AND PRO The wave map, wind and wind spots are free, and so are full quality scores from the day after tomorrow onwards. Pro (in-app subscription) adds scores for today and tomorrow, every forecast hour, wind windows for the next days and the first three days of the Abroad forecast. For surfers, kitesurfers, windsurfers, wing foilers and bodyboarders. Terms of Use (EULA): https://gdzietefale.pl/terms Privacy Policy: https://gdzietefale.pl/privacy
