What it does
BeachFinder exposes a searchable database of 184,900 swimming spots, beaches, and lakes worldwide with current conditions data like water temperature, wind, and waves. It is for developers building AI assistants that need to answer questions about where to swim, compare locations, or find water activity providers.
- Search for swimming spots by destination or location and get ranked recommendations with reasons why each matches a user's intent.
- Compare current water temperature, air temperature, wind, UV, waves and currents across multiple locations to help users pick the best spot.
- Find water activity providers and guides for activities like surfing, diving, and snorkeling without exposing their direct contact information.

Before you enable it
An MCP server runs with whatever access you give it. Start with a development account rather than production, and check which tools the server exposes before you let an agent call them unattended.
