Welcome to Buoy Data! Below you will find two ways to search for buoy data that provides real-time ocean conditions. Buoy's are an anchored data collecting float serving as a navigation mark and are strategically located all over the world. Buoy data is relevant to individuals who have an interest in fishing, surfing, boating, beaching, or any other ocean going activity. The 'Nearest Buoy' will ask for your current location then search the globe for the closest buoy to your location. The 'Further Buoy' search bar allows you to enter a location anywhere in the world and it will return the closest buoy to that location. Most data is refreshed every hour.
