"As a daily surfer in SoCal, Dorsal has become as essential as my wax and board. I check the map every morning before I paddle out. The community reports are lightning-fast and provide that extra layer of confidence when the water is murky. Best 10 dollars I have spent all year for the peace of mind."
"Living in Florida, my kids are always in the water. I love that I can set up push notifications for our local beach. Last weekend, we got an alert about a sighting just 20 minutes before we were planning to head down. It is a literal lifesaver and keeps our family beach days stress-free."
