## Conditions at HMS Maori

HMS Maori is open to the sea from the **N–E**, so waves build there when the tramuntana, grigal and lvant 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 [Wied iż-Żurrieq](https://scubaforecast.com/scuba-diving-weather/malta/malta-island/zurrieq/wied-iz-zurrieq) (11 km, sheltered from the N–E), [Anchor Bay](https://scubaforecast.com/scuba-diving-weather/malta/malta-island/mellieha/anchor-bay) (17 km, sheltered from the N–E) or [X127](https://scubaforecast.com/scuba-diving-weather/malta/malta-island/sliema/x127-wreck) (1.1 km, sheltered from the N–NE, E).

The water is warm to about 16 m.
