Cheap flights.
Good waves.

Every surf trip, ranked by waves and price.

Two feeds, watched around the clock.

Surf trips have two ingredients: good waves and a cheap flight. Chasing both across fare trackers and forecast tabs is a part-time job — so BarrelFare does the watching.

  1. We watch both

    Round-trip fares from your home airport, and the hour-by-hour surf forecast — swell, period, wind, tides — at 90+ breaks worldwide.

  2. Deals surface when they line up

    A flight that's genuinely cheap for its route and a forecast that clears the bar. Every trip is ranked Great · Good · Fair · Poor, so the first glance is the decision.

  3. You book with the airline

    BarrelFare hands you off to book direct with the airline or a travel site. No fees, no markup — we never touch your money.

One glance, one decision.

The deal feed leads with the call — how good the surf is, what the flight costs, and whether that combination is actually worth pouncing on.

App screenshot titled 'Good waves. Cheap flight. Go.': the Popoyo deal page showing a Great deal — surf score 6.3, about $223 round trip, beats 100% of past fares — with the best weekend window and a six-day surf forecast.
App screenshot titled 'The cheap day that's also good': a cheapest-dates calendar for Dominical with fares on each day, shown next to the surf forecast so the cheap day and the good day line up.
App screenshot titled 'Next season's trip, planned today': the Plan Ahead list ranking destinations by season — New Smyrna Beach, Sebastian Inlet, Folly Beach — with peak-season badges and typical fares.

A deal has to actually be a deal.

A trip only gets flagged when the fare is anomalously cheap against that route's own history and the forecast clears a real quality bar. If the swell is soft or the data is thin, the app says so — honest hedging over false confidence, every time.

Fair questions.

Do you sell flights?

No. BarrelFare finds and ranks the trips, then hands you off to book directly with the airline or a travel site. We never take your payment and never mark up a fare — fares shown in the app are estimates from recent searches, and you confirm the live price where you book.

Where do the forecasts come from?

The same open marine and weather models the major surf forecast sites build on — swell height, period and direction, wind, and tides — scored hour-by-hour against each break's own character (its swell window, its best tide, its wind exposure).

Which spots and airports?

90+ curated breaks across Hawaii, Bali, Costa Rica, Portugal, Mexico, Puerto Rico, Nicaragua, the US mainland and more, from 30+ home airports — with both lists growing.
