Marine and sailing weather using Open-Meteo Marine API + Weather API. Free, no API key required, works worldwide.
Two APIs are used together — replace LAT, LON, and TZ in all commands:
marine-api.open-meteo.com) — waves, swell, sea temp, currents, tidesapi.open-meteo.com) — wind, gusts, air temp, pressure, visibilityFind coordinates for any location using web search or the user's input. Use the nearest timezone (IANA format, e.g. Europe/London, America/New_York, Atlantic/Canary).
Sea state:
curl -s "https://marine-api.open-meteo.com/v1/marine?latitude=LAT&longitude=LON¤t=wave_height,wave_direction,wave_period,swell_wave_height,swell_wave_direction,swell_wave_period,sea_surface_temperature&timezone=TZ"
Wind and atmosphere:

Run both and combine the results into a single briefing.

High/low tide: find local maxima and minima in the sea_level_height_msl array. Sea level includes tidal signal + inverted barometer effect.

Always present marine data as a structured sailing briefing:
Sea: [wave_height]m waves, [wave_period]s period, from [direction]
Swell: [swell_wave_height]m from [direction], [swell_wave_period]s period
Wind: [wind_speed] km/h [direction], gusts [wind_gusts] km/h
Temp: Air [temperature]C (feels [apparent_temperature]C), Sea [sea_surface_temperature]C
Sky: [cloud_cover]% cloud, [visibility/1000]km visibility
Rate conditions based on the data:
Flag warnings:
| Force | km/h | Description | Sea State |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0 | 0-1 | Calm | Flat |
| 1 | 2-5 | Light air | Ripples |
| 2 | 6-11 | Light breeze | Small wavelets |
| 3 | 12-19 | Gentle breeze | Large wavelets |
| 4 | 20-28 | Moderate breeze | Small waves |
| 5 | 29-38 | Fresh breeze | Moderate waves |
| 6 | 39-49 | Strong breeze | Large waves |
| 7 | 50-61 | Near gale | Breaking waves |
| 8 | 62-74 | Gale | High waves |
| 9 | 75-88 | Severe gale | Very high waves |
| 10 | 89-102 | Storm | Exceptionally high waves |
Convert degrees to compass: divide by 22.5, round, index into [N, NNE, NE, ENE, E, ESE, SE, SSE, S, SSW, SW, WSW, W, WNW, NW, NNW].
Quick reference: 0=N, 45=NE, 90=E, 135=SE, 180=S, 225=SW, 270=W, 315=NW.
| Measurement | Unit |
|---|---|
| Wave height | meters (m) |
| Wave period | seconds (s) |
| Wind speed | km/h |
| Temperature | Celsius (C) |
| Current velocity | km/h |
| Directions | degrees (0=N, 90=E, 180=S, 270=W) |
| Sea level | meters relative to MSL |
| Visibility | meters |
| Pressure | hPa |
Users may prefer knots for wind. Convert: knots = km/h * 0.539957. Add &wind_speed_unit=kn to the weather API URL to get knots directly.
