NOAA National Data Buoy Center

NOAA’s National Data Buoy Center serves recent observations from moored buoys, coastal stations and partner platforms. La Bouée displays supported stations with their latest significant wave height, period, direction and available meteorological measurements. Real-time files generally contain the latest 45 days and have passed automated checks, but station ownership, reporting intervals and available sensors vary. Recent values may not have completed final archival quality control.
