Summary
Forecast for the next 7 days according to Reefranger:
Today at Reef Beach, the ocean temperature is a warm 24.4°C, ideal for water activities, though the 2.9m SE swell and 15.8 km/h ENE wind may create some surface chop, making conditions less optimal for snorkeling or diving. Friday sees improved conditions with a lower swell of 1.9m and manageable winds at 18.7 km/h, so it’s a better choice for underwater exploration. Avoid Saturday and Monday, as stronger winds might cause rough conditions. If cooler water temperatures occur, consider a wetsuit for longer sessions. Ideal days for snorkeling and diving are Friday and potentially Sunday, weather permitting.

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.
