About this buoy
Santa Maria is a moored weather buoy in the West Coast — 21 NM NW of Point Arguello, CA. It reports wind speed and direction with gusts, air pressure, and air and water temperature, and — where wave sensors are fitted — significant wave height and dominant wave period. Reports arrive about hourly and are served here live from NOAA's CoastWatch ERDDAP as they land.
Nearest tide station: PORT SAN LUIS · 21 mi NE of the buoy. Full record, wave spectra, and station history: NOAA NDBC station 46011.
