Reading the latest wave model run…
MetOry Marine · Premium module
Read the sea before you leave the pontoon.
Wave height, period and direction for open-water marinas and water-sports bases, every three hours for the next four days, from the ECMWF wave model. Written for harbour masters, sailing schools, charter skippers and event organisers who decide on the water.
Live sea state
Your marina, the next four days.
Pick a city and a marina. Each reading comes from the nearest open-water point of the wave model; its distance is always shown.
Reading the latest wave model run…
What you get
Built for decisions on the water.
Four days ahead
Significant wave height every three hours up to 96 hours, from the latest ECMWF wave run.
Period and direction
Peak period and the direction the waves come from — a 1 m swell at 10 s is not a 1 m chop at 4 s.
Honest about distance
Each reading names the model point it stands for and how far away it is. Harbours and bays are usually calmer.
No invented numbers
Rivers, canals, lakes and enclosed harbours the model does not resolve get no wave value — never a guess.
One plan with the weather
In the Venue planner the sea state sits next to wind, gusts, rain and the event window you set.
Official lane kept apart
Coastal warnings from AEMET, Météo-France and other authorities stay on their own lane and always come first.
Who it is for
Six desks that read the same sea.
Marinas and port operators
Berth movements, fuel-dock and crane slots, guest-harbour arrivals.
Sailing schools and clubs
Lesson and dinghy decisions the evening before, not on the slipway.
Charter and tour boats
Departure windows and briefings guests can understand.
Water-sports centres
Paddle, kayak and SUP sessions matched to wave height and period.
Regattas and sea events
Race-day and spectator planning from T+96 down to the start.
Coastal municipalities
Beach services, waterfront events and crew briefings along the shore.
Method and limits
What the numbers are, and what they are not.
- Source: ECMWF IFS wave model (ECWAM), 0.25° open data, CC-BY-4.0. Contains modified Copernicus/ECMWF open data.
- Sea-state words follow the WMO code table 3700. They describe the sea; they are not a hazard band.
- A model forecast, not an observation, not an official marine warning and not a decision to go out.
- Only 29 curated open-water places get a reading. Every other marina says why it does not.

A scoped pilot for one marina, school or event: your places, your thresholds, your team’s briefing.
