Summary
Forecast for the next 7 days according to Reefranger:
Today at Fairlight Beach, the conditions are not ideal for snorkeling or diving. The swell height is 3.4 meters with strong winds at 33.1 km/h, both coming from the south, creating rough surface conditions. Ocean temperature is at a comfortable 22.7°C, but the rough seas and wind make it unsuitable for water activities today. Conditions improve significantly by the weekend, with Saturday and especially Sunday looking more favorable. Expect swells to decrease to 1.3 meters on Sunday with moderate winds, providing calmer and clearer waters—ideal for snorkeling and diving. No wetsuit is needed if you’re comfortable at 22°C.

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.
