Summary
Forecast for the next 7 days according to Reefranger:
Today, at South Solitary Islands, the swell height is 2.2 meters with strong winds of 37.8 km/h from the SSW. This creates surface chop, making snorkeling and diving less ideal. Ocean temperature is a comfortable 24.7°C, so no wetsuit is needed for warmth. Later in the week, Friday and Saturday show improving conditions with smaller swells of 1.9 meters, though winds remain moderate. These days are the best opportunity for diving and snorkeling, provided you are comfortable with moderate wind. Avoid Tuesday and Wednesday due to high swells and winds creating rough conditions.

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.
