🌊 Swell & Wind Direction Simulator

🌊 Swell Direction Guide

✓ Best Swell Directions:
E (90°), ENE (67°), ESE (112°)
Swells hit beach directly = bigger waves

✗ Poor Swell Directions:
SE (135°), NE (45°)
Swells hit at angle = smaller, choppy

💨 Wind Direction Guide

✓ Offshore Winds (Good!):
W (270°), NW (315°)
FROM land TO ocean = clean, glassy waves

✗ Onshore Winds (Bad!):
E (90°), NE (45°), SE (135°)
FROM ocean TO land = choppy closeouts
