Chart help
If you are interested in wave sailing, and equally if you are not, it is important to understand the way swell is forecast so you can either avoid it; or get in it. Use this chart along with the Swell Period Charts, which is essential in understanding the energy of a given swell. We recommend that if planning a trip, take a look at these charts first then go to the individual beach reports for more detailed information of the swell characteristics at your beach.
