About Swellbook: Surf Session Log
Track every session, map your spots, and watch yourself progress. Swellbook is a full-featured surf journal designed for surfers who want to remember every wave. Log detailed sessions with conditions, equipment, photos, and more — all synced across your devices via iCloud. LOG EVERY DETAIL Record sessions with 20+ data fields: wave height, swell period and direction, wind, tide, crowd level, weather, water temperature, and more. Rate your sessions, add notes, and attach up to 10 photos. AUTO-FILL CONDITIONS Don't remember the swell? Tap "Fill from forecast" and Swellbook pulls wave, wind, and temperature data from Open-Meteo — automatically populated for your spot and session time. MAP YOUR SPOTS Pin surf spots on an interactive map with break type, bottom type, wave direction, difficulty, and notes. View a 48-hour swell and wind forecast chart for any spot. Share spots with friends via links or files. MANAGE YOUR QUIVER Keep track of all your boards, fins, and wetsuits with full specs — brand, model, dimensions, volume, fin setup, thickness, and more. See which gear you use most in your stats. PLAN SURF TRIPS Group sessions into trips. Track where you went, when, and how the waves were across multi-day adventures. COMPARE SESSIONS Select two sessions and see conditions, equipment, and ratings side by side. Spot patterns in what makes a great session for you. TRACK YOUR PROGRESS Detailed stats across four tabs: overview, spots, gear, and conditions. Filter by year or view all time. See your favorite spots, most-used board, top maneuvers, and session trends. SET GOALS Keep a wishlist of maneuvers to learn and spots to visit. Check them off as you go and track your completion rate. APPLE HEALTH Automatically log surf sessions as workouts in the Health app with estimated calories burned. HOME SCREEN WIDGET See your sessions this month, current streak, and last session at a glance — without opening the app. CAMPER MODE Traveling by van? Toggle camper mode to track camping info, parking, showers, fresh water, and distance to the break for every spot. BACKUP & SYNC iCloud sync keeps everything in sync across iPhone and iPad. Export your full journal as JSON anytime for safekeeping, or import it on a new device.
