Taoide

Know Your Beach
Before You Go

Tide times, sea temperature, wave height, surf conditions and marine weather forecast for the Irish coast. Offline tide predictions, swim score, bathing water quality and a beach map — all in one app, built on open data.

What You Get

Tide Times, Offline
Open the app and see the tide right away: how high the water is now, when the next high or low arrives, and a curve you can drag through the whole day. Tide predictions come from the Marine Institute and are stored on your phone, so they work with no signal at all — exactly when you need them on the Irish coast.
Weather & Sea Conditions
Air temperature and wind from Met Éireann. Sea water temperature and wave height from marine forecast data. Rain in the next two hours. Everything you need to decide whether to head to the beach or the strand today.
Swim Score & Bathing Water
One number for how the conditions look right now, with the reasons behind it. Underneath sits the EPA bathing water status for your beach, including any active advisory or prohibition. Water quality can change during the day, so always check the signage when you arrive.
Waves & Surf
Wave height and period so you know what to expect before you paddle out. Combined with wind direction and tide state, you get a clearer picture of surf conditions at your local break.
Coast Map & Saved Spots
Browse the map to see the whole coast at a glance, with every tide station and designated bathing water marked. Save the beaches you use. Set a reminder for an hour before low tide so you never miss it.
Sun, Moon & Golden Hour
Sunrise, sunset and the start of golden hour. Moon phase and today's tidal range, so you know whether you are in spring tides or neap. Useful for fishing, photography, and planning your time on the water.
