Marla Blue - Diving Forecasts app now on Android!

We are excited to announce the release of Marla Blue- Diving Forecasts, now available for download on Android on the Google Play Store!

Whether you’re a scuba diver, freediver, spearfisher, or snorkeler, Marla will help you plan your next dive.

With Marla, you can now access accurate underwater visibility forecasts and sea conditions for any dive spot around the UK and Ireland. Our app is made for divers who want to make the right decisions and ensure they’re diving in the best and safest conditions possible.

UK diving is challenging

For divers in the UK and Ireland, predicting underwater visibility is one of the biggest challenges. While sometimes undersea visibility can be less than a metre, on other days it can be gin clear for more than 20 meters.

Poor visibility often leaves divers frustrated or forced to cancel their plans.

This is where Marla comes in; Bringing our existing website to iPhone, the app combines the latest AI technology with user data to provide divers with real-time insights into underwater visibility and sea conditions.

With Marla, you can:

Find a dive spot

We have mapped some of the most popular dive spots in the British Isles. A full list of them can be found on our app. They’re split into 3 categories: Shore, Reef and Wreck.

Get underwater visibility forecasts 

For anywhere around the UK and Ireland - not just at our diving spots!

Powered by AI, our bespoke model analyses satellite images, weather conditions, and diver reports to offer underwater visibility forecasts, without having to wait for another diver to stick their head under the water. The forecasts are updated hourly. We provide visibility estimates for the following day as well as the past 3 days.
