About this report
The Cocoa Beach Pier surf report on howisthe.surf combines live cam footage, a multi-model wave forecast (ECMWF WAM, NCEP GFS WaveWatch III, and MeteoFrance MFWAM), wind and tide data, and the latest in-range buoy observation. The forecast is bias-corrected against recent paired observations so the wave height shown reflects measured accuracy at this region rather than a raw model average. Wave heights in the answer line are in feet, with meters in parentheses.
