Summary

Forecast for the next 7 days according to Reefranger:

Today at Edithburgh Jetty, conditions are challenging for snorkeling and diving, with a swell of 1.0 meters and strong SSE winds at 32.4 km/h creating surface chop. Ocean temperatures are mild at 22.4°C, so a thin wetsuit is recommended. The best days for water activities are Saturday and Sunday, with lower swells at 0.6 meters and wind speeds dropping to 26.3 km/h, providing calmer conditions. Avoid Monday and Tuesday as both higher swells over 1.3 meters and wind speeds above 33 km/h will likely cause rough conditions. Always ensure proper safety measures are in place.

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.
