Summary
Forecast for the next 7 days according to Reefranger:
Today at Shark Point, the swell is quite high at 2.9 meters with strong southerly winds at 47.2 km/h, creating rough seas that aren’t ideal for snorkeling or diving. As the week progresses, conditions improve, especially on Sunday with a swell dropping to 1.5 meters and moderate winds from the east-northeast at 29.5 km/h, making it the best day for underwater activities. Ocean temperatures are mild around 22.4°C, so wearing a 3mm wetsuit should be comfortable if you plan to be in the water for extended periods. Avoid heading out on windy days to ensure a safe and 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.
