Summary
Forecast for the next 7 days according to Reefranger:
Today at Little Bay, conditions aren’t ideal for snorkeling or diving due to a high wind speed of 36 km/h and swells reaching 1.6 meters, coupled with a Northeast direction that could create choppy surface conditions. The ocean temperature is a comfortable 22.9°C, though a full wetsuit would be advisable for extended sessions. Later in the week, Wednesday seems promising with the lowest swell of 1.3 meters and a gentler wind at 24.8 km/h. However, avoid Friday as the swells hit 2.0 meters. Always prioritize safety and check local advisories before heading out.

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.
