California explorer beta
A new coast. Start with the surf.
Explore 232 sourced surf and beach-access listings, coordinate-based swell and wind outlooks throughout the directory, California lakes and river gauges, and dated fishing observations for four California species. Search the coast, choose a marker and keep the source details beside the view.
Directory forecasts use source-listed coordinates; local break orientation and surf-quality scores remain unverified. Coastal access and facility records are dated snapshots. Continuous beach advisories and validated surf ratings are still being developed.
From checking the forecast to finding your way home. A closer look at Gillby, made for Florida’s water.
Film overview in text
Gillby brings Florida forecasts, tides, coastal places and cameras into one view. The film shows choosing an activity, place and time; comparing conditions through the day; and using boat details and planning tools before heading out. It also introduces Gillby’s chat and connections to AI assistants. The app footage contains recorded examples, rather than live conditions. The soundtrack is instrumental music.
Recorded app footage. Conditions shown are not live.
Switch between nine map presets for boating, fishing, beach, dive, surf, skim, paddleboard, kite and storm watch. Bring the layers and local details for your day into focus.
