BeachFinder can compare planning signals such as wind, UV, waves, distance and water-quality indicators, but it is not a safety authority. Check local flags, lifeguards, closures and official water-quality advisories before entering the water.
Use the UV and wind signals as planning cues: high UV favors early morning or late afternoon, while stronger wind or waves may make exposed beaches less comfortable. Always check the current local forecast before leaving.
