Sea water temperature & tides

Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPhone. Not verified for macOS.

New: log your swims and cold plunges with Apple Watch — official water temp included. 3,000+ US spots. Try Pro free for 7 days. Brr – or bliss? BrrChecker tells you how warm the water really is before you risk your big toe. Over 3,000 official measuring stations across the United States. Current water temperatures for over 12,000 lakes, rivers, lidos and coastlines in 80 countries – from 56 official and open sources: national monitoring networks, buoys, health-authority samplings and, where no gauge exists, vetted lake models. MADE FOR U.S. WATERS • 3,000+ stations coast to coast: NOAA buoys right at your surf break, USGS river gauges, the Great Lakes network, NERRS estuary sondes, Chicago's beach sensors and Waikiki's nearshore probes • EPA annual water-quality ratings for 250+ beaches • From Malibu to Maine, Alaska to the Keys — real measurements first, models only where no sensor exists THE PERFECT PLUNGE • Widget with temperature and trend on your Home and Lock Screen – and on Apple Watch, which fetches its own data, even without your iPhone • History curve: did the sun deliver, or did the rain spoil it all? • Temperature alert: BrrChecker pings you when your water hits your target temperature • Favorites for your swimming lake, river spot and after-work dip • Tides for coastal spots: high and low water at a glance • River levels at a glance: low, normal or high – anchored to official reference values, with history in cm and m³/s YOUR SESSIONS – THE BRRLOG • Log every swim, dip, SUP or surf session – with the official water temperature from the nearest station at the moment you were in • Apple Watch leads the workout: start it from your iPhone or right on your wrist, the phone can stay on shore. Heart rate, calories, distance and Ultra water temperature flow in from Health – and the session counts toward your rings • Photos, notes and your Brr scale, mirrored to your private iCloud – we never see them WIND FOR SURF & KITE • Knots, gusts and direction with an onshore/offshore chip at coastal spots, measured buoy wind beats the model, a 48-hour chart with the best kite window THE BRRSCORE From 1 to 10, for seven sports: swimming, SUP, kayaking, surfing, windsurfing, kitesurfing and pump foiling. Wind, waves and water temperature combined – plus a wetsuit recommendation and a cold-water profile for those who mean it. VACATION WHERE IT'S WARM Filter by target temperature and discover the warmest spots from the Mediterranean to the Caribbean. "Show me water above 24 °C" – and your next destination is set. SWIM CLEAN Official EU bathing-water classification, bacteria levels and – where authorities provide them – blue-green algae warnings. Official swimming bans are always visible, even without Pro. In the US, 250+ beaches carry the official EPA annual rating. FROM ICE BATH TO BATHTUB WARM Whether it's 4 °C for the winter-swimming kick or 26 °C for a family day – BrrChecker knows both worlds. The name says it all. Data-minimal: no personal data, no accounts, no ads. Get BrrChecker – check first, then dive in.
