About TideReady
TideReady answers one question: should I go to the coast? No tide charts. No guesswork. Open the app and get a clear, instant recommendation for your activity - whether that's a beach day with the kids, a surf session, kitesurfing, fishing, or a coastal walk. DECISIONS, NOT DATA Other tide apps show you numbers and charts. TideReady tells you what to do: "Tide going out. Beach is growing. Safe until 2:30pm." or "Offshore wind, 1.2m groundswell at 11s. Get out there." Five activity modes, one answer: Beach, Surf, Kite, Fish, and Walk. Each mode weighs tide, wind, swell, and safety factors differently, then gives you a simple Good, Fair, or Poor rating with a plain-English explanation. 5 ACTIVITY MODES - Beach: Is the beach growing or shrinking? How long do I have? - Surf: Is it worth the drive? Swell, wind direction, and tide combined. - Kite: Wind and tide together. Offshore wind warnings for safety. - Fish: When's the prime fishing window? 2 hours before and after high tide. - Walk: Is the coastal path passable? When must I turn back? SAFETY FIRST Walk mode shows a safety countdown: "Be off tidal paths by 12:30." Every screen shows when conditions change. Safety warnings are never behind a paywall. GLOBAL COVERAGE Over 5,000 tide stations across 5 countries, with more on the way: - United Kingdom: 600+ stations (UKHO Admiralty) - Ireland: 30 stations (UKHO Admiralty) - United States: 3,400+ stations (NOAA) - Canada: 1,000+ stations (CHS) - New Zealand: 32 stations (NIWA) - Australia: coming soon - Portugal: coming soon WHAT YOU GET (FREE) - Decision-first recommendations for all 5 activity modes - Live tide curve with high/low markers - 7-day tide times for 5,000+ stations across the UK, Ireland, US, Canada, and New Zealand - Offshore/onshore wind labels - Swell trend (building, steady, dropping) with period for surfers - Wind trend (strengthening, steady, easing) for kiters - Sunrise and sunset times for coastal walkers - Solunar feeding periods for anglers - Family-friendly beach assessment - Cold water warnings with wetsuit guidance - Rip current risk assessment - Tidal cut-off warnings for dangerous coastal paths - Water quality data from the Environment Agency (England beaches) - Nearest lifeguarded beach with distance - Tomorrow's tides at a glance - Search any beach by name, or tap the map to find the nearest station - Weekend outlook notification every Friday No ads.

What’s new
Version 1.1 · Updated October 9, 2026
Faster maps, a smarter Watch, and always clear when you're offline. - Much faster Browse Map: it opens near you straight away, and tapping anywhere on the map finds the nearest tide station. - Apple Watch: pick a station for each complication, and the timeline now moves forward on its own through the day. - Know what you're looking at: a banner shows whenever you're viewing saved tide data offline, and the footer credits the provider that actually served your station. - Fixed a crash and a missing tide chart at a few UK stations with sparse predictions. - Cleaner tide curve: the Now marker no longer collides with high-tide times. - iPhone Duo: unfolded, the dashboard splits into two columns either side of the hinge.
