Paste a one-line iframe on a forum thread, club site, or bait shop page. Shows the next four tide events plus a 72-hour sparkline for any coastal location, anywhere in the world. No API key, no account, no ads.
<iframe src="https://fishare.app/embed/tide.html?lat=-33.7976&lon=151.2887&title=Manly+Cove" width="360" height="240" style="border:0;border-radius:12px;max-width:100%" loading="lazy" title="Tide forecast — Fishare"></iframe>
Same deal, different angle: today's best fishing windows for any coastal spot — the hours around each tide change plus the dawn and dusk low-light bite, with the prime overlaps (a tide change at first or last light) flagged. Pairs perfectly with the tide chart. Same params, no API key, no ads.

The lat, lon, title and theme params below work identically on both widgets.
| Param | What it does |
|---|---|
lat |
Latitude in decimal degrees. Required (unless spot is set). |
lon |
Longitude in decimal degrees. Required (unless spot is set). |
spot |
Optional slug for a marquee Fishare spot (e.g. spot=manly-beach) — a shortcut that fills in lat/lon for you. Coordinates remain the reliable contract for anywhere not in the built-in list. Honoured by the bite widget. |
title |
Optional display label (up to 40 chars). E.g. title=Coffs%20Harbour. |
theme |
Pass theme=light for a light-theme variant. Defaults to dark to match most fishing forums. |
tz |
Optional IANA timezone (e.g. tz=Australia/Sydney). Defaults to auto, which lets the open-meteo API pick by lat/lon. |
Yes. No API key, no rate limit, no ads inside the iframe. We pay for the data so anglers can share it without thinking about it. The widget links back to fishare.app — that's the deal.
The tide curve comes from the open-meteo marine API on an hourly grid. Hourly resolution is honest for an embed widget — a "high at 14:00" is usually accurate to within ~15 minutes of the true peak. For minute-level precision use the full Fishare app, which models harmonic constituents from a global tide-station database.
Use theme=light or theme=dark. Further styling is intentionally limited so the widget stays consistent and recognisable across the sites that embed it.
The widget needs JavaScript to fetch tide data from open-meteo. If JavaScript is disabled it falls back to a "tide data unavailable" message with a link to fishare.app.
No cookies, no tracking pixels, no analytics inside the iframe. The only outbound request is to marine-api.open-meteo.com for the tide data and the optional click-through to fishare.app when a visitor taps "See full forecast".
Yes. Each iframe is independent. The widget is around 5 KB of HTML/CSS/JS plus a single open-meteo API call per instance.
Open-meteo has been a stable free tier since 2022. If it ever returns an error, the widget renders an "unavailable" state with a click-through to the full Fishare forecast for that location.
