## Conditions at Punta Falconiera

Punta Falconiera is open to the sea from the **NW–SSW**, so waves build there when the tramontana, grecale, levante, scirocco, ostro and maestrale blow.

Over the next 7 days it's good or better every day. 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) (4.5 km, sheltered from the NE–SSE).

The water is warm to about 46 m.
