Waves and swell are adjusted for this site's shelter from the coastline. Arrows point where the wind and swell go. Night hours are shaded. Tide times come from an ocean model: usually within about half an hour, more in complex waters. Check official tide tables.

Conditions at The Lusong Gunboat

The Lusong Gunboat is open to the sea from the ESE–SE, so waves build there when the wind blows from those directions. Land shelters it from the SSW–SW, NW–NNE.

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 The Olympia Maru (4.1 km, sheltered from the ESE–SE) or The Akitsushima (5.8 km, sheltered from the SE).

The water is 31 °C at the surface, so a rash guard or 1–2 mm suits most dives.

Shelter

Open water in each direction from the site. Longer petals mean more open sea, so more exposure to wind waves and swell from that direction.N: 0.3 km of open waterNNE: 0.4 km of open waterNE: 6.5 km of open waterENE: 4.6 km of open waterE: 4.6 km of open waterESE: 24.0 km of open waterSE: 101.9 km of open waterSSE: 4.8 km of open waterS: 5.0 km of open waterSSW: 2.0 km of open waterSW: 2.2 km of open waterWSW: 3.1 km of open waterW: 6.3 km of open waterWNW: 15.5 km of open waterNW: 1.8 km of open waterNNW: 0.3 km of open waterNESW

About this forecast

Updated Sat 14 Nov, 23:30 · weather run 06Z 14 Nov · waves run 00Z 14 Nov

Waves are adjusted for this site's shelter from the coastline.

Tides come from a coarse ocean model. The range, and whether tides are bigger or smaller this week, are about right. Times are usually within about half an hour, but complex tides (the Solent, Portland, narrow straits) are poor. Slack water isn't in the score yet: plan with official tide tables and local advice.
