Conditions at USS Kittiwake
USS Kittiwake is open to the sea from the S–WNW, so waves build there when the wind blows from those directions. Land shelters it from the NW–ESE.
Over the next 7 days it's good or better every day. Wed, Thu and Fri are only a trend so far.
The water is 29 °C at the surface and stays warm past 56 m, so a rash guard or 1–2 mm suits most dives.
Shelter
Open to S–WNW. Waves and swell from there reach the site.
Sheltered from NW–ESE: land blocks the waves.
Computed from the OpenStreetMap coastline. Wind itself is not reduced by shelter.
