## Conditions at Unse

Unse is open to the sea from the **NNE–SW**, so waves build there when the wind blows from those directions. Land shelters it from the WSW–NW.

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 [Gahijima Kaitei Sabaku](https://scubaforecast.com/scuba-diving-weather/japan/okinawa-prefecture/zamami/gahijima-kaitei-sabaku) (11 km, sheltered from the NNE–SE, S–SW).

The water stays warm past 56 m.
