UK Buoy Data

Conditions from UK & Irish sea buoys, lightships and offshore platforms

The map below plots moored weather buoys, lightships and industry platforms reporting around the UK and Ireland — including the Sandettie, Greenwich and Channel lightships nearest to the Solent, several Irish Marine Institute buoys, and a scatter of North Sea platforms further out. Click a marker, or an ID in the table below, for that station's own detail page. Not every station reports every field — a blank entry or “n/a” just means that sensor isn't fitted, or didn't report this time round.
