Desta: Marine Weather & Wind
Sailing weather, wind & tides
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Wind-first weather for boaters: live wind, tides, radar and marine warnings — plus a Boating Window that tells you at a glance whether to go, wait, or stay in.
Desta is the weather app built for the water — wind-first, beautiful, and made for people who actually go out on it.
Most weather apps bury the one number that decides your day. Desta puts it front and centre: live wind speed, gusts and direction, in knots, m/s or Beaufort — your choice.
CAN I GO OUT TODAY?
The Boating Window reads wind, gusts and sea against real boating limits and gives you a clear answer — go, marginal, or stay in — and explains why, in plain language.
WIND, DONE PROPERLY
• A live, animated wind map you can scrub hour by hour
• Gusts and direction at a glance
• The named Adriatic winds — bura, jugo, maestral, tramontana — read by name, with what each one means
SEE THE WEATHER COMING
• A smooth precipitation radar, from the last hours through a two-day forecast
• Accurate hourly and 10-day forecasts — temperature, pressure, visibility, sunrise and more
MARINE WARNINGS
Official storm and gale warnings for the Croatian Adriatic (DHMZ / MeteoAlarm), with the affected area, timing, and what to do.
TIDES
Port-referenced tide times and heights where available, with a clear on-device estimate as a fallback — always labelled.
PLAN & SAIL
• Plan a real sea route that follows navigable water — around the islands, never across them — with distance, time at your speed, and the wind, waves and harbours along the way
• Go Sailing: live wind, sea and tide at your position, updating as you move
MADE FOR THE WAY YOU SAIL
• Works offline — your last forecast is always there
• Opens where you are, or any harbour you pin
• Free to use. No account needed.
Coverage: forecasts, radar and tides work worldwide. Marine warnings, sea-route planning and the harbour catalogue are tuned for Croatia and the Adriatic today, with more regions on the way.
Desta is a planning and information tool. It is not a substitute for official forecasts, nautical charts, or your own seamanship. Never rely on it for navigation or safety-of-life decisions.
