Coastal activity field guides
Start with what you are going out to do.
The same high tide can mean a bite window, a departure check, a different shoreline, or a reason to watch the dock. Choose an activity to see which tide, wind, water, and light signals belong in that decision.
Six ways to read the coast
One data layer. Different decisions.
Each guide opens with the outcome, explains the inputs, and hands its exact activity mode to the free Trip Health Check.
