Conditions at El Vapor del Miracle

El Vapor del Miracle is open to the sea from the E–SW, so waves build there when the wind blows from those directions. Land shelters it from the WSW–NE.

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

The water is 21 °C at the surface and warm to about 24 m, so a 7 mm or semi-dry 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: 0.6 km of open waterNNE: 0.8 km of open waterNE: 2.4 km of open waterENE: 5.8 km of open waterE: open sea (over 200 km)ESE: open sea (over 200 km)SE: 191.7 km of open waterSSE: open sea (over 200 km)S: open sea (over 200 km)SSW: open sea (over 200 km)SW: 55.2 km of open waterWSW: 2.0 km of open waterW: 1.3 km of open waterWNW: 1.1 km of open waterNW: 0.9 km of open waterNNW: 0.8 km of open waterNESW
