Summary

Forecast for the next 7 days according to Reefranger:

Today at Bare Island, conditions are moderate with a 1.8-meter swell from the SE and winds at 20.2 km/h from the WNW. For snorkelers and divers, Monday looks ideal with a gentle 1.2-meter SE swell and manageable WNW winds at 17.3 km/h. Ocean temperatures averaging 18.3°C suggest wearing a 3-5mm wetsuit for comfort. Exercise caution on Tuesday and beyond, as swells increase to over 2.5 meters and wind speeds escalate, making conditions less favorable, especially with strong winds from the south. Always prioritize safety and be mindful of changing conditions throughout the week.

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.
