Rose Avenue surf guide

Rose Avenue is a surf spot located at the foot of Rose Avenue in Santa Monica. This area is known for its beachbreak, making it a decent choice for both beginners and experienced surfers. The spot is quite accessible and generally not crowded, especially during the summer months. While it's not the best surf location in the area, it offers a reliable option for some fun waves.

The waves at Rose Avenue can handle swell sizes starting from 1 ft (0.3 m) and are best with south or northwesterly swells. You'll find waves breaking over sand, which can produce both left and right waves. The spot tends to close out on days with overhead conditions, so keep an eye on the size. It works well across all tide heights—low, mid, and high—but you’ll want to check the winds as northeast is the preferred direction for better conditions.

Be mindful that the surf can be somewhat mundane, especially on less favorable days. The conditions are more likely to produce fun waves with smaller windswells. Consistency is generally good, making it a solid summer spot to catch some waves and play around in the water.

Readme

Welcome! If you’re new to surf forecasting, check out this quick guide.

Forecast Cheat Sheet

Short on time? Focus on wave energy. It’s the best single metric to gauge how big and powerful the waves will be.

Click any table cell to jump to that forecast hour. The map will update with forecast arrows, so you can see if wind and swell direction are lining up.

Use the table sidebar to switch units for height and speed.

Log your surf sessions to compare forecasts with real sessions and sharpen future predictions.

On the map, click a metric label to bring that arrow to the front — handy when arrows overlap.

Models and Updates

Surfnerd blends multiple global and local wind and swell models using advanced interpolation and spatial techniques to create an "ensemble" forecast. Forecasts are refreshed hourly.

Surf Predictions

Our AI-driven algorithm scores surf quality, shown by green, orange, and gray dots. Each forecast hour is rated for wind, swell, and tide quality, then combined into an overall score. Here’s the scale:

Perfect
Good
Average
Bad or No Data

Session logs also feed the algorithm — the more you log, the smarter your forecasts get.

With Surfnerd, no more "you should have been here yesterday"

Wind certainty

Wind certainty tells you how much the weather models agree on the forecast.

  • High certainty: Models agree closely; forecast is reliable.
  • Medium certainty: Some disagreement; conditions may shift slightly.
  • Low certainty: Models diverge; treat forecast with caution.

We calculate this by comparing wind speed, gust and direction from multiple models (like GFS, ECMWF, Arome, and Harmonie) and seeing how closely they match. They are weighted, meaning that some models count more than others, depending on how good they are for a certain spot.
