Conditions at Tulamben’s Coral Garden

Tulamben’s Coral Garden is open to the sea from the NNW–ESE, 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 31 °C at the surface and warm to about 19 m, so a rash guard or 1–2 mm 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: 136.8 km of open waterNNE: open sea (over 200 km)NE: open sea (over 200 km)ENE: open sea (over 200 km)E: 69.7 km of open waterESE: 52.8 km of open waterSE: 1.3 km of open waterSSE: 0.4 km of open waterS: 0.3 km of open waterSSW: 0.2 km of open waterSW: 0.2 km of open waterWSW: 0.2 km of open waterW: 0.3 km of open waterWNW: 0.4 km of open waterNW: 0.7 km of open waterNNW: open sea (over 200 km)NESW

Open to NNW–ESE. Waves and swell from there reach the site.

Sheltered from SE–NW: land blocks the waves.

About this forecast

Updated Sat 14 Nov, 23:30 · weather run 06Z 14 Nov · waves run 00Z 14 Nov

Waves are adjusted for this site's shelter from the coastline.

Tides come from a coarse ocean model. The range, and whether tides are bigger or smaller this week, are about right. Times are usually within about half an hour, but complex tides (the Solent, Portland, narrow straits) are poor. Slack water isn't in the score yet: plan with official tide tables and local advice.
