## Conditions at Sakubaru Gyosho

Sakubaru Gyosho is open to the sea from the **SSE–SSW**, so waves build there when the wind blows from those directions.

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 [Gina](https://scubaforecast.com/scuba-diving-weather/japan/okinawa-prefecture/zamami/gina) (3.5 km, sheltered from the SSE–SSW).

The water stays warm past 40 m.
