~9 km model grid; nearest model water 4.3 km away, so channels and bays may differ. Daily averages; the thermocline can move several metres day to day.

Conditions at Rockstar

Rockstar is open to the sea from the WSW–ENE, so waves build there when the wind blows from those directions. Land shelters it from the ESE–SSW.

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

When it's rough here, try Mary’s Place (5.7 km, sheltered from the WSW–NE).

The water is 29 °C at the surface and warm to about 52 m, so a rash guard or 1–2 mm suits most dives.

Shelter

Open to WSW–ENE. Waves and swell from there reach the site.

Sheltered from ESE–SSW: land blocks the waves.

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