Summary
Forecast for the next 7 days according to Reefranger:
Today’s conditions at Bare Island are a bit challenging for snorkeling and diving due to the moderate swell of 1.1 meters from the ENE and a 18.7 km/h northerly wind, which could create surface chop. With an ocean temperature of 21.5°C, a 3mm wetsuit is recommended for extended dives. The best day for underwater activities appears to be Sunday, as swells settle at 2.0 meters and the wind decreases to 18.7 km/h from the north. Avoid Thursday, as the swells peak at 3.2 meters and the wind reaches a strong 45.4 km/h from the south, creating harsh conditions.

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.
