Forecast sources 2/6 current

Coastal waves, offshore swell, and surf height describe different conditions. Source availability does not measure forecast accuracy.

Wave observation

The Buoy API

No verified wave observation is connected for North Male Atoll. MMS AWS “sea state” is qualitative weather-station data with no wave height, period, sensor definition, or offshore exposure, so it is not treated as a buoy or surf observation.
UnavailableNo source time

Tide prediction

WorldTides API

MMS publishes tide predictions for named stations, but its public chart labels the axis “Wave Height in Centimeters (cm)”, supplies no chart datum, and provides no reviewed station-to-break assignment for every member of North Male Atoll; values are withheld.
UnavailableNo source time

Forecast model

Copernicus Marine Global Ocean Waves

No independently authenticated Copernicus product, run, grid, and current response is connected for North Male Atoll; the MMS nationwide bulletin and Open-Meteo model remain separately labeled forecast evidence.
