## Conditions at Brixham Breakwater

Brixham Breakwater is open to the sea from the **NNE–E**, so waves build there when the wind blows from those directions. Land shelters it from the ESE–W.

Over the next 7 days it's good or better on Sat, Sun, Mon and Wed. Thu and Fri are only a trend so far.

The water stays warm past 8 m.
