Beach Day API for AI agents

Beach Day API provides data on beaches worldwide, including conditions, scores, amenities, rules, and tide predictions, used by apps that help people plan a beach trip. Connect it once through Arc0, and your agent, or Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor, can use it through one MCP endpoint, limited to what each user approved.

04 · AUTH AND DATA

How Beach Day API connects.

Users add their Beach Day API api key on Arc0 Connect. It is encrypted in the vault, never shown to the model, and each user can rotate or revoke it at any time.

The same Beach Day API connection serves your agent over MCP and your own backend over REST and the proxy, so a user connects once. How Arc0 handles credentials →
