Sapphire Street surf guide

Sapphire Street is a surf spot located at the foot of Sapphire Street in Redondo Beach. It's known for its sandbar that offers rights on the south side of the jetty. While it doesn't pick up as much swell as Topaz Street, it's still a decent option when the NW winds are making other spots less appealing. Generally, spring is a good time to catch some waves here, particularly when conditions align.

When it comes to the surf, this spot is best suited for low tide, where the waves tend to work better. You can expect it to handle swell sizes starting from around 1ft (0.3 meters) and going up, with the ideal swell direction coming from the west. It can also work with southwest and northwest swells. The wave breaks over sand, which is good for those looking for a softer landing. For the best experience, east winds are preferred, making it a mellow, enjoyable spot to surf when conditions are right.

Overall, Sapphire Street has its moments. It's a relatively safe pick for surfers looking to avoid the more crowded spots. Just remember to check the tide and wind directions before heading out, as these can really affect your session. This place is worth a visit when the conditions align right.

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.
