Is there an API for ocean temperatures?

Question

I've checked all of the questions here about weather API's and checked every single suggested API but still no luck! I need an API that includes the water temperature in its response.

I'm using wunderground to get the weather forecast data I need, but I'm still missing the water temperature.

Is there an API (preferably free) that includes water temperature in its response? (I don't even mind if it's all that it sends back).

I have to ask, water temperature of what? (How is this related to the weather? What is the water temperature in Phoenix, AZ for example?) — KevinDTimm, Nov 10 '10 at 16:59
Water temperature of the sea..it's a weather info mainly related to coastal cities. I need it for diving sites related pages. — Layal - ليال, Nov 10 '10 at 17:54

Found it! http://www.sea-temperature.com!

It doesn't offer a very flexible way to fetch the data and not all of the cities I want are there but It's better than nothing.

Hope this helps anyone who wants the same data.

But they don't have an API. Do they? – mixdev Dec 23 '18 at 12:32
They don't, I remember parsing the HTML of the page and looking for the data I needed. Not the fanciest way but it's what got the job done back then. – Layal - ليال Feb 12 '19 at 23:14

Check out the Meteomatics Weather & Ocean API: api.meteomatics.com

It contains wave data, ocean currents, salinity, swell, tidal data, wind, hurricane data etc.

The National Oceanographic Data Center has the information you're looking for in the United States.

The European Environment Agency has the information you're looking for in Europe. I found a map but not an RSS feed.
