It’s not about the spot. It’s about which side works this month.

FAQ
Why zones instead of spots?
Zones reflect coastal exposure and seasonal patterns. Spot lists often fail because they ignore why one side of a coast works and another doesn’t.
Does this replace forecasts?
No. This is a planning tool, not a real-time forecast. Always check current local conditions before entering the water.
Why does one side work and the other doesn’t?
Wind and swell affect different coastlines differently. In many places, the “right side” changes by season — that’s the core idea behind Reefguide.
What does “confidence” mean?
Confidence describes how repeatable conditions tend to be during that period — not how “good” a place is.
How should I use this while traveling?
Use Reefguide to choose a coast and a base, then stay flexible day-to-day. If conditions don’t line up, don’t force it — switch plans.
