Conditions at Yo-257

Yo-257 is open to the sea from the ESE–W, so waves build there when the wind blows from those directions. Land shelters it from the N–E.

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

The water is 26 °C at the surface and stays warm past 56 m, so a 3 mm wetsuit 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: 2.4 km of open waterNNE: 2.0 km of open waterNE: 2.1 km of open waterENE: 1.8 km of open waterE: 1.9 km of open waterESE: 97.9 km of open waterSE: open sea (over 200 km)SSE: open sea (over 200 km)S: open sea (over 200 km)SSW: open sea (over 200 km)SW: open sea (over 200 km)WSW: open sea (over 200 km)W: open sea (over 200 km)WNW: 16.2 km of open waterNW: 6.4 km of open waterNNW: 3.6 km of open waterNESW

Open to ESE–W. Waves and swell from there reach the site.

Sheltered from N–E: land blocks the waves.

Computed from the OpenStreetMap coastline. Wind itself is not reduced by shelter.
