## Conditions at Grotta dei Gamberi

Grotta dei Gamberi is open to the sea from the **NE–WSW**, so waves build there when the grecale, levante, scirocco, ostro and libeccio blow.

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

When it's rough here, try [Le Piramidi](https://scubaforecast.com/scuba-diving-weather/italy/sicily/ustica/le-piramidi-ustica) (2.7 km, sheltered from the NE–SSE).

The water is warm to about 46 m.
