Summary
Forecast for the next 7 days according to Reefranger:
Today at Wonder Reef, the ocean temperature is a warm 26.4°C, and swells are at a manageable 1.1 meters from the southeast, but with strong southeast winds at 25.9 km/h, there will be surface chop, making snorkeling and diving challenging. For the best conditions, aim for Sunday to Wednesday when swells drop to 0.7-0.8 meters, and winds decrease to around 20 km/h, creating calmer conditions. Frequent southeasterly to east-southeasterly swell direction will provide good visibility. No wetsuit is needed due to the warm ocean temperatures. Avoid Friday and Saturday due to high winds reaching over 35 km/h.

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.
