Online alarm clock for 3:25 pm

You have only just woken at 3:25 pm, so the evening surf is still an idea rather than a plan in motion. Set the alarm before you start checking the wind, finding your board gear or drifting back under the doona. A 4:00 pm signal gives you a clear point to get moving as the afternoon breeze begins to ease.

Your surf plans depend on the alarm remaining active after you set it. Choose a sound you will notice, check the volume, then leave this page running while you get ready. If you close the tab or browser, or allow your phone or laptop to sleep, the alarm cannot sound and the evening surf may start without you. Keeping the screen powered nearby also makes it easier to confirm that the timer is still counting towards 4:00 pm.

Moving from an air-conditioned room into the late-afternoon heat can make the beach feel harsher than expected, even when the wind is dropping. Keep your board and essentials together near the door, with water ready, so the alarm marks departure rather than the beginning of a search. At this hour, a few minutes outside before loading up can also help you judge whether the temperature and breeze match what you saw from indoors.

Common questions

Can I set more than one alarm at a time?

This page is built around a single alarm at a time. For multiple alarms, open a separate tab for each one and set a different time in each, keeping every tab open until it's rung.

Why use a browser alarm instead of my phone's built-in one?

Mainly for reliability against silent mode, do-not-disturb, or a phone left charging out of earshot. It's a useful backup or a desk-based alternative, though it depends on this tab staying open rather than running in the background of your phone.

Is there a cost to use this?

No, it's free, with no sign-up and no limit on how many times you set it. It just needs the tab left open until the time you've chosen arrives.

Will the alarm still ring if I close the browser tab?

No. The alarm only runs while this tab stays open — closing it, or closing the browser entirely, stops the countdown before it can ring. Keep the tab open in the background if you need it to go off later.
