Conditions at Ħondoq ir-Rummien
Ħondoq ir-Rummien is open to the sea from the E–ESE, SSW–SW, so waves build there when the lvant and lbiċ 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 Anchor Bay (7.7 km, sheltered from the E–ESE, SSW), Xwejni Bay (8.8 km, sheltered from the ESE, SSW–SW) or Reqqa Point (9.8 km, sheltered from the ESE, SSW–SW).
The water is 22 °C at the surface and warm to about 28 m, so a 5 mm wetsuit suits most dives.
Shelter
Open to E–ESE, SSW–SW. Waves and swell from there reach the site.
Sheltered from SE–S, WSW–ENE: land blocks the waves.
Computed from the OpenStreetMap coastline. Wind itself is not reduced by shelter.
