Conditions at Secche di Tor Paterno

Secche di Tor Paterno is open to the sea from the ESE–NW, so waves build there when the scirocco, ostro, libeccio, ponente and maestrale blow.

Over the next 7 days it's good or better on Sat, Sun, Tue and Wed. Thu and Fri are only a trend so far.

The water is 20 °C at the surface and warm to about 46 m, so a 7 mm or semi-dry suits most dives.
