About

Tides NZ was handcrafted right here in New Zealand by me, Will Townsend. Part of a summer project, I got the idea when I formed an unhealthy obsession with skimboarding. (Unhealthy due to the number of times I got screwed up). I wanted a way to be able to quickly find out when the tide was out, but to my dismay no existing app did this simple task!

When I couldn't find a decent app, I decided to have a play. After a few weeks, Tides NZ was created.

About the data

The data used to calculate the tides is provided by Land Information New Zealand (LINZ). So with any luck, it should be pretty accurate.
