Conditions at Shaab Marsa Alam
Shaab Marsa Alam is open to the sea from the NNW–SSE, so waves build there when the wind blows from those directions.
Over the next 7 days it's good or better every day. Thu and Fri are only a trend so far.
The water is 28 °C at the surface and stays warm past 6 m, so a 3 mm wetsuit suits most dives.
Shelter
Open to NNW–SSE. Waves and swell from there reach the site.
Computed from the OpenStreetMap coastline. Wind itself is not reduced by shelter.
