## Conditions at Martin's Haven

Martin's Haven is open to the sea from the **WNW–NW**, so waves build there when the wind blows from those directions. Land shelters it from the E–W.

Over the next 7 days it's good or better on Sun and Mon and a no-go on Sat and Wed (current and waves). Thu and Fri are only a trend so far.

When it's rough here, try [Dakotian](https://scubaforecast.com/scuba-diving-weather/united-kingdom/pembrokeshire/tenby/dakotian-wreck-milford-haven) (8.4 km, sheltered from the WNW–NW).

The water stays warm past 29 m.
