Traditional circular tide clocks haven’t changed in decades…

Traditional style tide clocks have poor accuracy, and don’t really paint the whole picture. Endlessly spinning in a circle suggests that every day is the same, but that is far from reality.

Tide heights are different every day of the year, and can vary even more from AM to PM. Extreme tides can make a big difference at the beach or on the boat. Many people assume the afternoon low tide will be the same as the morning low tide, but they can be several feet different! All day boaters only looking at their watch might already be stranded, so tide heights matter!

We set out to solve that by creating an entirely new product that will change the way you think about tides forever, look great in your home, and generate conversations with your guests for years.

NexTide is simple to setup, easily configurable to your specific tide chart, syncs with the web by itself, and just plain works.

How does it work?

Our functional artwork has built-in Wi-Fi capability and turns tidal data into informative animations of color-coded lights that show you 12 hours into the future. With only a glance from across the room, you can know the high and low water levels for the day.

No more ambiguous numbers or useless arrows to translate — tide heights are displayed using an intuitive scale of lights that you can see on your way out the door.

Quickly knowing the height of the tides can be a game changer for boating, spending a day at the beach, fishing, surfing, walking the dog, hunting for sea glass, metal detecting, kayaking, paddle boarding, swimming, volleyball, scuba diving and the list goes on.

Does NexTide work with Mixed Semi Diurnal Tides?

Of course it does… NexTide works with any area that has a NOAA tide station, including areas like the west coast and the gulf of Mexico where circular tide clocks are mostly useless.

Is NexTide easy to setup?

Basically there are 3 simple steps, that’s it!

  1. Use your smartphone to connect to NexTide’s WiFi hotspot (just 1 time)
  2. Select your home WiFi network and enter WiFi password
  3. Choose a beach or nearby harbor as your tide chart for NexTide.
    Enjoy!

Are there subscription fees?

Never. Your NexTide pulls tide data directly from databases made publicly available by NOAA. No registration or account required.
