## Conditions at Miyara Offshore Yatanitei-mae

Miyara Offshore Yatanitei-mae is open to the sea from the **NE–WSW**, so waves build there when the wind blows from those directions. Land shelters it from the NNW–NNE.

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

When it's rough here, try [Sakieda Big Arch](https://scubaforecast.com/scuba-diving-weather/japan/okinawa-prefecture/ishigaki/sakieda-big-arch) (19 km, sheltered from the NE–WSW).

The water stays warm past 56 m.
