About Fanø Bugt wave buoy

Fanø Bugt is a Danish Coastal Authority directional buoy in the eastern North Sea southwest of Esbjerg. Its setting between the open sea, the island of Fanø and the approaches to the Wadden Sea represents conditions relevant to the harbour entrance, tidal inlets and the low-lying southwest Danish coast.

Its current data source reports wave height, wave period and wave direction.
