Cloudbreak surf forecast & live buoy readings
Cloudbreak is rated from the NOAA GFS-Wave model sampled at the break itself; no NOAA wave buoy sits within 200 km, so the model is the only live source on this coast. It works on swell from S through W, best at 15–20 s. The first 5 days, the tide chart and every buoy's live readings and history are free to everyone; a free account adds the full 16-day wave and wind charts and custom swell alerts.

No active NOAA station reports within 1,000 km of Cloudbreak. The nearest instruments are listed below for context on the wider ocean, but nothing here reads the lineup. PierMonkey rates Cloudbreak from the NOAA GFS-Wave model sampled at the spot itself, and the 16-day forecast on the Forecast tab is the source to plan from. How the rating works →
