Summary
Forecast for the next 7 days according to Reefranger:
Today at Bushrangers Bay, conditions are not ideal for snorkeling or diving with a swell height of 2.3 meters and strong southern winds reaching up to 36.7 km/h, which can create surface chop. Ocean temperature is a warm 21.8°C, suitable for short wetsuits if needed. The best conditions are expected on Thursday and Friday when swell heights drop to 1.7 meters, and Saturday with a further decrease to 1.6 meters. While winds remain moderate, the reduction in swell makes these safer days for underwater activities. Avoid Tuesday and Wednesday due to higher swell and moderate winds.

Diving Forecast
These are the reefranger ratings for the next 7 days. Ratings are available for the morning, low tide, and high tide. Tides are shown during the daytime (6am to 8pm). Ratings currently take into account Swell Height, Swell Direction, and location exposure based on swell direction versus the orientation of the site.
Scores reflect the ocean conditions in the 2 hours between 8am and 10am, and consider local heavy rainfall in the period prior.

Model
Swell and wind impact diving suitability, but not all swells and winds are equal. A dive site may be protected from wind and swell by nearby geography. The model uses these exposure ratings to determine how much impact a wind and swell will have on the dive site, based on the origin of the winds or waves.
