How can Swelleye PRO help improve my surfing?
See the surf first, surf smarter, surf better!
Swelleye PRO helps you turn forecasts into better sessions by pairing hyper‑local forecast data with live surf cams, enabling you to confirm conditions in real time and paddle out with confidence.
• Live Surf Cams: See the surf first. Verify wave size, wind, and crowd before you leave, cutting down on wasted travel and expenses.
• Dialed-in Forecasting: Get precise swell, wind, tide, and other important insights, allowing you to make the best decisions.
• Spot-by-Spot Guidance: With "Multi-Spot" you can check up to four surf spots at the same time, including Surf Reports, Surf Forecasts, and Live-Streaming Surf Conditions. Compare your favorite breaks side-by-side.
• Performance Feedback: Tap into our surf forecasts, reports, surf spot data, and infographics to track your sessions, capture what worked, and uncover patterns to help you progress with purpose (i.e., which surf conditions you surf best, what's the best tide for each surf spot, etc.).
• More Quality Waves, Faster Progression: Confirmed conditions equal higher wave count, improving surfing fundamentals and accelerating your surfing skills.
With Swelleye PRO you can see the surf first, choose smarter, and score better waves more often!

Save on Travel Costs
When surf conditions are really poor, viewing the Swelleye PRO surf cams can help you decide not to travel to the beach, saving you time and money.
As a conservative example, let's say this happens only once per month. Below is what you could save in one month if you purchase a Swelleye PRO Yearly subscription (NT$145 / month) and it saves you one trip to the beach.
NOTES:
1. The below calculations were updated 11/11/2024. Travel expenses subject to change.
2. Calculations are based on round-trip travel to the surf spot and back.
3. Fuel expense is calculated using a mid-sized car with a fuel efficiency of 10 liters per 100 km and the current Taiwan fuel price of NT$31 per liter.
