Marine buoy
Valparaiso CL-SHOA-VALPARAISO
Valparaiso is a wave buoy in Chile integrated into SwellOracle from SHOA Chile. This page places the station in the catalog and is ready to show height, period and direction when the regional reading is connected.
How to use this reading
Valparaiso helps confirm whether swell energy is reaching the Chile area. Higher height with a longer period usually means more organized energy, while direction determines which coastlines receive that swell best.
For surf decisions, compare height, period and direction with your beach's local exposure. If the station does not report a variable, use the app to compare it with nearby model points.
