Summary
Forecast for the next 7 days according to Reefranger:
Today’s conditions at Edithburgh Jetty are quite challenging for snorkelers and divers, with a swell of 1.2 meters and strong winds at 34.9 km/h from the west-southwest, which will likely create significant surface chop. If you plan to dive, consider wearing a 3mm wetsuit, as ocean temperatures are around 21.6°C. The best conditions this week will be on Thursday and Friday, with lower swells of 0.6 and 0.5 meters and winds decreasing to around 27.4–28.4 km/h. These days offer calmer seas, ideal for snorkeling or diving, with winds that should cause less surface disruption. Avoid diving on Sunday due to rough seas.

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.
