## Conditions at Gabr el Bint

Gabr el Bint is open to the sea from the **NE–SSE**, so waves build there when the wind blows from those directions. Land shelters it from the SW–NNE.

Over the next 7 days it's good or better every day. Thu and Fri are only a trend so far.

When it's rough here, try [Seven Pinnacles](https://scubaforecast.com/scuba-diving-weather/egypt/south-sinai/dahab/seven-pinnacles-dahab) (15 km, sheltered from the NE–E).

The water stays warm past 56 m.
