About this app

Wavve Boating is the easiest and most downloaded marine navigation app. Clearly see potential hazards with a map that’s custom to your boat’s draft and current water levels.

When it comes to marine navigation, nautical charts, and boating maps, The Wavve Boating App is an easy choice. Wavve Boating improved outdated marine navigation apps, tide charts, and depth finders by combining them into one tool. Stay updated on current boating conditions, like marine weather, wave heights, water depths, and tide forecasts. Access sea maps for your boat, water depths, marine traffic, boat ramps, and other boating tools from the boat navigation app. Don’t waste money on pro chart plotters, depth finders, or Navionics. Boat like a pro on your android phone with the top rated marine GPS in the US, Australia, Canada, and United Kingdom..

🧭 SEAMLESS MARINE NAVIGATION
Forget crowded nautical charts and confusing boat maps; with Wavve’s boating GPS, it’s easy to get boat directions and view water depths from home or the moment you leave the boat ramp. Planning to navigate out on a lake, river, sea, or ocean? Easily use Wavve’s offline saving feature to plan your next trip. See why sailors and captains call us Google Maps for Boating!

🗺️ CUSTOMIZED MARINE CHARTS
Wavve Boating customizes 20,000+ nautical charts based on your boat's draft. Unlike a chartplotter, this marine app builds a map specific to your vessel. Gone are the days of marine navigation with cluttered chart plotters and buying marine charts piece by piece like in Navionics Boating. Wavve has integrated marine charts into one map for all your boat GPS needs. Marine charts are available in the USA, CAN, AUS, and UK.

🚤 LARGEST BOATING COMMUNITY
Similar to Waze, but for boats, you can view other boaters on the map and add them as friends. Discover unique boating destinations only available on the water. Wave goodbye to other apps like Navionics, Savvy Navvy, and C-Map and see top rated fishing spots, boat ramps, marinas, moorings, fuel, beaches, islands, sandbars, restaurants, dock and dines, and more! Share insightful boating knowledge and marked points of interest with a community of boaters...or keep them private and stowed away 🏴‍☠️

🌊 TIDES
Stay ahead of the tide and avoid shallow waters. The Wavve Boating map automatically adjusts to display current water levels based on tide charts and tidal changes near you. Quickly view hourly tide levels up to 3 days in advance. Wavve takes the stress out of high and low tide and helps planning the best time to hit the water.

☀️ MARINE WEATHER 🌨
Avoid the storm with a marine weather tool that includes critical information for lake and sea conditions. View 7-day marine weather forecasts including wind speed, wind gusts, wave height, wave period, sunset time, weather conditions, wind charts and so much more. Boat weather forecasts don’t need to be a challenge, leverage Wavve Boating’s weather features in one easy to use app experience.

📍CHART COVERAGE
Current nautical chart data includes the United States, Australia, Canada, Great Lakes, Florida, 1000 Islands, St. Lawrence River, United Kingdom and Caribbean. View our ocean chart coverage and river maps at https://wavveboating.com/map/.

Not great, but better than nothing. It did have charts and offered an offline version. I found the app was off by 15-20 degrees on the direction I was traveling, which made navigating more difficult. The chart plotter also on multiple occasions charted a plot straight through an island instead of going around it. The red for the shallow water was also more faint than expected. I would have kept it as a backup if the subscription wasn't so pricy.

Apps ok, not very user friendly, hard to put in routes. I spent hours putting in desired routes last year and they were available in my routes then and now there gone. it's only been a year , boating seasons only 4 months for me. Renewed for another full year, can't get a refund and I'm not spending hours again to put my routes back in. They said they should be there, but Ive used all 3 emails and tried logging in through Facebook like they suggested, nothing, no routes saved in any of them.

Not good. it is frustrating to download an app, have a two week trial, pay monthly or yearly when your trip is 11 months away and your cannot even see how the app works. Do I like it? I have no idea. I will still search for something else. Something that someone in kansas can play with and learn to use without paying money.

What’s new

You can now manually adjust the water depths shown across your map when a local water level station isn't available. This is especially helpful when boating on inland lakes and waterways. Head to the Depths feature on the main map screen to check it out! As always, if you have any questions or feedback, reach out to the Wavve Boating team anytime at community@wavveboating.com. We even answer on weekends!
