## Conditions at Isle of Muck North

Isle of Muck North is open to the sea from the **NW–SSE**, so waves build there when the wind blows from those directions. Land shelters it from the S–W.

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 [SS Harrington](https://scubaforecast.com/scuba-diving-weather/united-kingdom/county-antrim/islandmagee/harrington-ferris-point) (4.5 km, sheltered from the ENE–SSE, NW).

The water stays warm past 56 m.
