Summary
Forecast for the next 7 days according to Reefranger:
Today’s conditions at Shark Point show moderate swells of 1.8 meters and strong WNW winds at 22 km/h, making it less ideal for snorkeling or diving. Ocean temperatures are chilly at 18.7°C, so a thicker wetsuit is advisable. For calmer waters, Monday offers the best opportunity with swells dropping to 1.2 meters and moderate NW winds at 16.6 km/h. Avoid Tuesday and Thursday, as swells rise above 2.5 meters with strong winds, posing safety challenges. Overall, plan your dive or snorkeling trips for the calmer start of the week for a more enjoyable experience.

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.
