Conditions at Wicher

Wicher is open to the sea from the SSE–SSW, NW, so waves build there when the wind blows from those directions. Land shelters it from the N–SE.

Over the next 7 days it's good or better every day. Thu and Fri are only a trend so far.

The water is 10 °C at the surface and stays warm past 47 m, so a 7 mm with hood, or drysuit 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: 0.2 km of open waterNE: 0.3 km of open waterENE: 0.3 km of open waterE: 0.5 km of open waterESE: 1.1 km of open waterSE: 2.9 km of open waterSSE: 30.2 km of open waterS: 26.7 km of open waterSSW: 24.2 km of open waterSW: 19.5 km of open waterWSW: 15.8 km of open waterW: 17.3 km of open waterWNW: 17.7 km of open waterNW: 20.7 km of open waterNNW: 4.1 km of open waterNESW
