Conditions at Proteus Wreck

Proteus Wreck is open to the sea from the N–SW, so waves build there when the wind blows from those directions.

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

The water is 28 °C at the surface and stays warm past 56 m, so a 3 mm wetsuit suits most dives.

Shelter

Open to N–SW. Waves and swell from there reach the site.

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