Conditions at Teavapiti Pass

Teavapiti Pass is open to the sea from the N–SE, so waves build there when the wind blows from those directions. Land shelters it from the SSW–WNW.

Over the next 7 days no day looks good: Sat, Sun, Mon and Tue are a no-go (surge, waves and gusts). Wed, Thu and Fri are only a trend so far.

When it's rough here, try Tiva pass (15 km, sheltered from the N–E).

The water is 27 °C at the surface and stays warm past 40 m, so a 3 mm wetsuit suits most dives.

Shelter

Open water in each direction from the site. Longer petals mean more open sea, so more exposure to wind waves and swell from that direction.N: open sea (over 200 km)NNE: open sea (over 200 km)NE: open sea (over 200 km)ENE: open sea (over 200 km)E: 40.0 km of open waterESE: open sea (over 200 km)SE: open sea (over 200 km)SSE: 9.8 km of open waterS: 3.9 km of open waterSSW: 1.9 km of open waterSW: 1.6 km of open waterWSW: 0.5 km of open waterW: 2.0 km of open waterWNW: 1.8 km of open waterNW: 11.4 km of open waterNNW: 8.8 km of open waterNESW

Open to N–SE. Waves and swell from there reach the site.

Sheltered from SSW–WNW: land blocks the waves.

Computed from the OpenStreetMap coastline. Wind itself is not reduced by shelter.
